5Ks brakes

Good evening all,

Well, I have the drivers side caliper, rotor & pads on. I have a couple of
questions concerning this:

- the new caliper doesn't have the mounting position the old does for the
flex to steel line connection. Wrong caliper? Normal on rebuilt calipers?
Can I mount the bracket some other way?

- in the process of removing the brake line it broke (doesn't it always :-)
). So I have to replace the steel line between the flex line and the
caliper. Probably both sides. What are the specs on the lines? Are they
standard or special?

On an alternate note, about the radio it seems they stuck in a VW radio. So
it looks like I will simply pull out and replace with a aftermarket head
unit, CD unit and amp :-D. Thanks to all that responded.

Regards & thanks
