HEL brake Lines Clio 172

[Drewski172]

Me again with my brakes!

I purchased these HEL Brakelines from Kam Racing...amazing service and speedy delivery! Also love the pack of haribo with my invoice.

I forgot to ask when ordering if these were the proper ones for my car, (2000-2001 172 - I have a 2003 172)...these were the only ones I could find anywhere for sale so went with them.

Before I actually take them out the pack and attempt to fit, can I get any confirmation these are correct please? The fitting into the bracket on the car looks different.

On the OEM ones the end into the bracket is splined but these ones aren't, just a hex nut.
I don't want to open incase I need to send them back. I believe the calliper end will fit and so will the hardline end, but unsure with the bracket.

Yeah they look correct.

Go easy on the hardline fitting, it should spin but corrosion can seize them on and you'll end up cheesing the end off 😅

I've loosened them off and they span nicely so hopefully all good to go!

Thanks. I bent the bracket back to give some extra room after seeing this video: Clio brake upgrade.
They should have loosened off nicely so will have a go at them later and post my results
