Default C2 - replacing clutch master and slave cylinders - which rubber hoses to replace?

I'm probably going to be replacing the master and slave cylinders to help improve clutch disengagement.

I've read that a rubber hose (or hoses) should be replaced at the same time.

Below is a PET screenshot of the front pedal assembly which shows some hoses. Which of these should I be ordering and do you guys use the Porsche hose clamps or just normal hose clamps?

Also, I thought I read somewhere that there is a rubber hose attached to the slave cylinder but PET doesn't show anything attached to the slave (see the third screenshot). Is there another rubber hose back there?

Thanks!

Number 10 in the pet is the only one you need to replace. That's the rubber hose you are talking about that connects to the slave.

Yeah. It’s the only one under pressure. Check condition of the feed lines from the reservoir. Most likely they are fine.
Fvd makes a nice braided one.

Ok, didn't realize #10 was in the back attached to the slave.

Is this the FVD part replacing #10 that you are talking about?

Just received the FVD hose and have a question.

I had assumed that the fittings on each end rotated (where the arrows are). They don't -- they're fixed.

When you attach the hose to the hard line and then to the slave and tighten both ends, it seems to me that you have a good chance of the slave cylinder being clocked (positioned) incorrectly.

Would you just keep tightening one end or the other until the top of the slave (with the bleed screw) is oriented at the correct location?

Put the slave side on first. And then you will see that the hardline fitting on the hardline rotates and then you will clock correctly on that side.
