Had HELs on my car for 3 years now. Used them on RAC and track days. Never had any issues.

Both brands have a good reputation, you will be happy with whichever you purchase.

I have APP Braided Brake lines front and rear and it had the clips so you can bolt onto the struts
Dont use cable ties which is where pits will fail you 99% of the time - I've passed pits 2x with them installed.

My bad, but goodridge is still a good brand.

Ii was leaning towards the Goodridge if I was buying off the shelf but was told by a vendor on this site that Hel are the only ones that are ADR approved.

Interested to hear if Goodridge owners are aware of this or if they have anything different to say on this issue.

Goodridge will pass pit inspection. I'm going through this at the moment. Main thing they went looking for were the manufacturers tags.

Both will work and are legal. Just pick one, install and carry on.

There's a thread on the legalities here somewhere.
