Do a search on ebay for SLK320 brake lines.
There's a guy in Canada selling them for about $68 (USD).
I posted the link a couple of weeks ago.

I contacted the Ebay seller and he said they will not fit our Crossfires, not sure if this true or not.

I already ordered ATE Super Blue brake fluid.

Thanks!

Is there any reason you can't use a mityvac? I've always found it easier than the old fashioned "push the pedal" method. (inevitably someone always lets their foot off the pedal before the bleeder is sealed)!
