Cool Re: Braided lines on ebay

They donot fit our cars as per the Ebay vendor. You can purchase them from Goodridge, however they will cost abit more than $68.00.

how can they not fit our cars? Goodridge does not make lines for the crossfire, but they do make them for the r170 chassis, which is what the vendor is selliing his lines for. they fit the slk320 as per vendors auction.

I looked at the auction and agree - They should fit no problem.

Price is right - give em a try Max. I installed the Goodridge and like them. The brakes do feel a bit more responsive.

Try them out and let us know. Just be sure to use quality brake fluid.

I contacted the vendor and told him what platform the Crossfire was built on and was told that they would not fit.

Used MB170 lines, just had to add a washer on each where it bolts into the chassis mount.
