I have a 1997 Mk1 Punto 55 of which the front brake 'flexi' hoses are somewhat tired and need replacing.
My questions are:
Is there specifically a 'right' and 'left' hand hose or are they interchangeable? Reason I ask, is because on the Ebay adds, for instance, they say 'right' and 'left' when sold individually.
Also, what is the correct length, because even though I've entered in the car data I get different lengths for the hoses e.g. 365mm, 395mm 397mm, 400mm?

Any other insights or pertinent info you may have would be most welcome.

Cheers,
Tom.
