Great stuff, no need for expensive kits and not even needed to take of the wheel, which is a hassle for the rear wheel.
Now I only need to find the the right cable to plug it over. -

are shimano hydraulic disc brakes using only mineral oil? How much do i need the oil for both brakes front and back? THX
-
can i use LHM+ in hydroponic brakes, because its mineral oil?

Its an ordinary syringe as typically used in clinics and all kinds of life science applications. The yellow plastic is a tip for a so called pipettman - a tool also used in life sience research. I guess drugstores sell these things...

what kind of fluid do you use dot 3

Does it matter how much brake fluid I put in the bottom syringe? Does it matter as long as I have more than enough in there? Thanks.

I guess you mean the rear lever. Usually I fill the brakes with the fluid reservoir set to a volume close to but below its maximum (3-4 turns of the silver screw/wheel on the reservoir). After filling I close the reservoir and press the lever several times. Finally, the lever will be adjustet by reducing the volume in the system using the wheel on the reservoir.

your brake levers were still squashy/loose after you finished with the oil. what do you need to do to make them more stiffer?
