Simon Baxter at Brickwerks sells stainless steel brake pipes

He also fitted me a front to back brake pipe. Give him a ring and he'll probably make you one up and post it to you

Have you tried your local VW Vancentre for t-piece?

Replace it .... £5.40 from GSF ... not worth screwing round with, both money and safety wise. While you're replacing the flexy and small pipe is a perfect time ... co's the small pipe will no-doubt snap off anyway :lol:

GSF sell 3 qualities of wheel cylinder.
I only sell the most expensive.
There is a good reason for this.
£11 is not expensive.
