Default Small rubber brake pipes

Hi all. I recently changed over to braided brake lines, but found a couple of small rubber brake lines attached to the chassis in the left front wheel arch. Are these replaceable with braided items also? If so, does anyone have a link to where I can buy them?

Thanks

These: Discovery II Brake Lines

But they are over priced in my opinion.

I believe the service schedule for DIIs states they should be replaced every 10 years or something like that. No idea where to get them though lol

Actually, it's six years...

IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT:
• At 90,000 miles (144,000 kilometers) or every six years, whichever is sooner, all hydraulic brake fluid, seals and hoses should be renewed.

Is it RoverTym or Tactical Rovers that offers the complete braided lines? They may have them in braided form which would be better... Just a thought.

Product Details - Land Rover Parts | Rovers North

Or...

It looks like the modulator to pipe hose from AB is the same part, is braided, and costs less...

Brake Flex Hose Connects Between Modulator And Pipe (SHB101350SS Same Fit As Part # SHB101350) - Land Rover hoses from Atlantic British

Is part #5 in the attached photo what you're looking for?

Check the edit I made to the post above your last one. Those things are tough to find but I'm pretty sure that's the one for $39. I may just order some too...

Yep they are exactly the right ones, thanks. Will have a scout around and see if they are available in the UK, and will post my findings here

Thanks again
