Just take the old ones in with you - if you are going to a proper brake place they should know anyway but if you have the old ones it may save you a trip.

Go to your brake place and if they are worth dealing with they will tell you, Trev

i asked the same question a while ago. i still have not done mine. i have established that the standard is 3/16" - if your using a booster , some suggest using 1/4" from your master to the booster to get better pressure. look back a few months you'll find more about this subject.
