The two front ones are diffent lengths. One attaches too the metal pipes through the wheel arch into the engine bay. The other side joins inside the wheel arch itself. Does that make sense? If you look at them as they are you will see what i mean. Its impossible to get them mixed up. One of the pipes should have a "collar" on it to alow it to be held in place by those spring clips. This will be the longer one.
You will need ONE more extended hose for the bake brakes. Its on the back drivers side. Metal pipes take the brake fluid the rest of the way. Thats why you only need one.

Hope that makes sense and is of help.
