Default SOS Clutch Hose, which one do I buy?

I am planning to put an AP1 Slave Cylinder into my AP2 2005 S2000. Which SOS Clutch Hose do I get though? AP1 or AP2? I read that no matter what Slave Cylinder you run, you have to match the clutch hose to the YEAR of your car, due to the brake hardline. I would like to get confirmation if this is true?

Also, does the SOS clutch kit come with everything I need? Would I need to buy anything further from Honda for the installation?

Thanks in advanced.

I went ahead and contacted SOS to ask. For any future references here is the reply I got

"Buy the clutch hose for your year of car not the slave cylinder. The hookups at the cylinder are the same, the hookups on the frame rail are different so purchase it for the year of your car. So in your instance you would purchase the clutch line for the 2005. Hope this helps. Let us know if you have any other questions or would like to place an order. Thanks again."

Or, just remove the CDV valve from your ap2 cylinder, for free, which is not that much more work than just removing and replacing with a different cylinder...

Mine leaked from the brass block. I had to use unreasonabe torque to get the fitting to seal. Have someone sit in the car and help you bleed so you can be sure its not leaking before you put the car on the ground.
