I have just been reading the "How To" on fitting S/S brake hoses and the original ones on the MGF have a central mounting held by the lower shock absorber bolt. The Goodridge kit does not contain any clips/brackets to replace this central mounting/fixing and the hoses are too long to just leave unsecured. i had thought of using the neoprene sleeved "p" clips that refrigeration engineers use to support copper pipework or is there a proper part for this?
Where can i obtain the stainless steel banjo bolts that Clive used in his rebuild? Thanks to all that answer :broon:

I cut the central bracket off the old hose and fashioned it into a mount so I could use a cable tie on it.

I have seen kits that include the P clip so you should be OK there.

I have got the Goodridge Kit and no "P" clips, James idea is good too, i also saw an old post on .org (sorry said that word!!!) and it shows the hose going through a rubber lined P clip bolted to the lower SA bolt. :thumbsup:
