While replacing a rear wheel cylinder, I had the steel line seized onto the
clamp nut, so it was twisting as I removed it. Since the line looked pretty
rough, I just cut it off and crimped the end to stop the fluid.
I see in EKTA that these lines do not have part #s - just a 5m roll of line cut
to length. So it would appear I need to get a flaring tool, some end "nuts",
and some line, and since I assume the line is fairly cheap, I might as well
do any that look bad, right? Or am I better off to just get the 15" or so that I
need?

This flaring kit:

shows 4.75, 6, 8, 10mm dies.
It appears from EKTA that VW uses 4.75mm brake line - is this fairly easy
to find?. Anyone know the correct size for the flare nuts?

Thanks.Shawn Wright
