Default Rear brake upgrade, drums to disks...What brake lines to use?

Like the title says, I need to get some brake lines to work with my new rear disk setup. The fittings for the drums are apparently different. What is the recommended setup for rear brake lines? And where's the best place to purchase?

Thanks!

Excellent, thanks for the Info!

Pictures of the B5....let me see...No really nice ones, but here are a few:




S4 sides and rear, RS4 front end. 18" OZ Chrono's with BFG KDW2's, APR Stage 3 turbo kit, test pipe, cams, APR FMIC, APR level 3 brakes, APR springs and Koni sports, Intrax front and rear swaybars, plus a ton of little stuff that would take me forever to list.

She was a great car, but i've moved on to an S2000 now.

Thanks guys, I loved the Audi, but I had it for 3 years. I wanted a change of pace. And a 2 seater roadster is a big change from a sedan. I'm really enjoying the S2000, they're drastically different cars obviously and both have their strengths and weaknesses, but it's hard to beat cruising with the top down, with the motor singing at 9000 RPMs.

About the stainless brake lines. Where is a good cheap source for those?
