I've already put the Mazdatrix ones in. They look SWEET! Best of all, they're not much more than the OEM rubber and cloth ones. If you only have one bad line, only replace one now, and then the other when you can afford it. It's a worthwhile investment in your car. The only affordable alternative would be to get a used line from a junkyard, but that's just putting a ticking time bomb under your hood.

Corksport ones (which are exactly the same as the standard Mazdatix and RB ones) were only $130 last I looked.
