Please could you have a stab at what flexi angle would be best to specify, the pics are good but still a bit tricky to work out exactly what is required.

Many thanks. :

EDIT - it looks like 20, 45, 70 or 90 degrees are the options. From the footwell pics, 90deg might be best?
My only concern with the angled hoses is that if the shaped stainless pipe protudes too far, the master cylinder will not fit at all. 70 degrees should do it, 90 degrees will be pointing towards the drivers seat a bit I would have thought.

Also if you are going with an angled hose end, you might need an extra 50mm of hose as the spiral from the master cylinder would be larger.

If my hose fails I will replace it with an angled one, but I don't have any spare £20's lying about to get another made at the moment.

Take a look and decide for yourself.
