Are there any other options for the plastic lines that go from the Resevoir to the Mastercylinder? The prices for these seem way too high, and I am wondering if anybody has done any alternatives?
this is a 1975 914 that I am restoring. thanks, |

I just saw the kit from PMB, and think I might try it. I had been looking and the prices seemed crazy. PMB has it for $30.
thanks, |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) Why make it easy by purchasing PMB? That would mean your 914 is potentially off axle stands and on the ground sooner. Better to spend hours forming the lines yourself and delay (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) |
