the green piping that goes into the brake system....mine is rusted and a small crack is the actual piping

where can i get hold of these piping? went to the garage and they said they would cut some of the piping and then weld it back on... and that u cant get hold of the piping but it had to be made up?

another garage said it would cost about £60 to get it welded n put on?

any ideas or recommendations guys?

thanks

any good motor factor should have a roll of it. Then you bend it to the shape you want. Take care not to kink it when bending it though. All you need is sum1 to make the ends, a garage should be able to do this if u have the orig pipe to copy.
