No the standard ones fit , the only difference in the later hoses is how they fix to the front struts , the ends and lengths of the hoses are identical

Yes you need a 1993 to 2000 kit , the Hel kits are far better , they have plastic coating and stainless steel fittings as standard
I can supply you a hose kit and a litre of dot 5.1 fluid for £59.50 if your looking to buy

P&P is £7.50
You can order off the site as we list hoses only for this price , put down your user name on here and we will include the fluid in with the price

just to clarify Ian's post which seems to suggets that Goodridge dont have this also........

Goodridge kits all have clear coating as std, are available in either plated or stainless steel options and most importantly (IMO) they have the correct line locators to ensure safe fitment

hope this helps, alyn

Sorry yes should have made it clear that as standard the HEL kit are supplied like this , a standard Goodrich kit comes with plated mild steel fitting , and you can pay extra for the stainless fittings , but they work out quite a bit more like for like
