I'm just getting the car to the point that I'm comfortable selling it. AFAIK, I can still get the hard lines from a place on the east coast, but I'm thinking it might just be easier to do something like the Volvo caliper swap. Working on and bleeding the OE calipers is a real PITA! Part of the challenge of doing anything is that I really don't have a decent place to work, therefore the emphasis on "easy". I understand that the term is relative.
