Default 4 pot upgrade

I'm just waiting for a set of secondhand 4 pots to arrive in the post to replace the 2 pots on my my97. What I'm wondering is will I have to buy new flexable hoses? or will the existing hoses be the correct length and fitting for the 4 pots? I know braided would be better, bit I'm trying to keep the costs down at the moment. (yes I have the larger discs)

Anyone know?

As long as you've got the 4pot calipers, discs and the pads then you should have no problems....

One quick hint, make sure you put the bleed nipple at the TOP!!! you'd be amazed how many people put it at the bottom..... air rises in fluid.....!

Cheers, it's obvious but the sort of thing I;d do if I was rushing. Just have to roll the car to bleed the brakes!!
