    I had my 18k service done this week. I asked for the front nearside brake duct to be replaced because it had collapsed and wrapped a wire around the caliper. It is just a rubber duct about 1.5 feet long, with a wire core running through it.

    Price for the part: £138 + VAT to you sir !

    Bargain.

    If you have a Demon Tweeks catalogue check out page 259, I don't know the exact dia' on the 355, but I would expect this to be about £25.00 per meter.

    Also "DT" is an expensive source (but easy, quick & reliable).

    It seemed to have mouldings on both ends where it is attached, and was all one piece. Dunno if the DT stuff would have covered that?
