The hoses I bought were supposed to be for the rear calipers - they are both Delphi LH0461. The eBay advert says they're for the rear but (as I've just discovered) the Delphi catalogue says LH0461 is for the front - see here and here.

Rimmers say the rear hose is SHB000851, which has a spring and a metal joint half-way along. - it looks identical to LH0461.

My original factory rear hose (the one I've taken off) does not have a spring and does not have a metal joint half way along - it has a rubber grommet instead, which pushes into the metal bracket on the trailing arm. SHB000851 does not fit this metal bracket, neither does LH0461.
Try this link, I bought these from eBay,
