Yes, but the series 2 front struts have an integrated bracket to hold the brake hose; the series one doesn't have this. Simple solution is to use a cable tie to hold the braker hose if you use series 1 shocks.

ok cheers, was just checking. im sure that something like a hose clamp wouldnt break,
as for inspection unless it is for a defect, here in SA we dont have inspections.
