I'm replacing the soft lines on my brake system with a Powerstop braided stainless steel hose kit. What size line wrench will I need to get the old soft lines off?

EDIT: 2006, not 2005. Damned sausage fingers....

This car have ABS? There were no direct fit braided lines for non-abs cars available.
Sorry, I dont recall wrench size.

The wrench you need is a 11mm and avoid using the open end of a wrench, they are very corroded due to the brake fluid that seeps into the valves so penetration fluid will be helpful.

What do you mean avoid using the open end of a wrench? A line wrench is open-ended... am I missing something?
