REAR BRAKE LINES

Dear All,

Just had a (fortunate) MOT fail on my Boxster; the brake system failed at the test station. Now discovered as expected, perforated brake lines just after the rear junction block under the passenger side sill. Both rear fixed pipes need replacing.
Where should I go to buy new ones? Any sage advice on my DIY would be appreciated.

Regards,
Pat
 
Dear Pat,
Where are you? Obvious answer is go to your nearest OPC. Otherwise go to a Porsche specialist. If you happen to be in Oxfordshire I'd say go to www.maundrells.co.uk from where I both bought, serviced and sold my Boxster 987.1S. Good people.
 
Thanks for replying, I am just down the road from Porsche Wolverhampton. Bit of luck; only one pipe perforated and it is the short one to the nearside rear so an easy replacement. I am told that this corrosion point is well known.
Regards
Pat
