I also ended up getting a full set custom made at a local place after one of the goodridge ones i had fitted failed, price wise was similar if not cheaper than buying them off the shelf :)

I just checked my invoice and it looks like the site I bought them from isn't up any more, it was owned/run by HEL though. The bag they came in is stamped helperformance.com so I'd try there and see if they've changed the domain of the site used for ordering custom hoses.

Looks like the best price is £29.99 a hose now :( They were definitely cheaper when I bought mine (that's why I chose them over pattern rubber lines) and I even scored 2 sets for the price of one as they forgot to put a bend in the fittings first time around. So looks like Tegiwa is the cheaper option here after all, my bad!

FWIW here's a link to get custom hoses made up from HEL, might be handy if you have a more unusual car where it's hard to get off the shelf brake hoses:

Never even heard of them before, but they've got the necessary approvals and it wouldn't be like Demon Tweeks to but their name to shoddy goods :)
