Default Brake Hose

The brake hose on my 94 Civic seems to be leaking (badly) so i called up teh Honda dealer and they said its $60 and i can buy it like next week. Since that was way to expensive i called some local auto parts stores and one said $20 and the other said $30. I dunno which one to buy, as this is the brake system, i want some good quality parts but i dunno where to buy it. Any1 know where i should get my hoses? And wats the deal with stainless steel braided hoses?

Stainless steel braided hoses are stronger. The braiding helps hold the hose from rupturing. Go with stainless steel braided if you intend on keepin your car around for any length of time.

I'm in Canada, but any good auto parts store should be able to get them for you.
