how hard is it to fit rear brake seals on 1996 astra, do you have to bleed the brakes after the new seals,

Hi,
The seals are a doddle to fit, but beware of corrosion in the slave cylinders. If you fit seals in a corroded bore you will have wasted your time. Yes you will need to bleed the system afterwards but you can reduce the amount of bleeding by clamping the flexible brake lines to the wheels while you have the system apart.
Cheers now
