If you buy a 2' length with the ISO flare and correct metric fitting, you won't need to make any flares. I think the Asian 11mm hex metric uses a differerent thread pitch. I know that Pep Boys stocks European and Asian flared lines separately.

Unless you've used your flaring tool on Volvo lines before, it probably does the SAE single and double flares, but not the ISO "bubble".

Eastwood sells the ISO kit for $60, while the SAE is only $28. I have both kits, and see nothing to justify the ISO price, but at the time I didn't know of another source.

Good luck with the job.
