First of all, how difficult is it to replace the gauges in my 850? Next, I have to replace my left rear caliper, and can NOT break loose the nut on the line that goes from the caliper to the junction. It is a solid metal line, not rubber. Can it be replaced with stainless steel lines? Or is this something I need to get from dealer. Because the head of the nut is getting chewed up trying to break it free.

RE: 2 questions
Are you trying to use a good pair of Visegrips on the line now?
I believe you will need to replace with a metal line.
You should be able to buy from the Auto parts store. But it will be straight and you will have to bend it.
Note:Be careful bending it and don't kink it.
What I always do is where there is a Bend and I need to bend. I bend around a socket to make sure it doesn't kink.
