according to the Earl's catalog, "The DOT does not "approve" any products. It calls out specs and test procedures that the components must meet. The manufacturers then self-certify that they are in compliance. The DOT may randomly require that components be tested by an independent certified laboratory selected by DOT."
"The Earl's "hyperfirm" brake hoses meet all DOT, TUV and JWA standards & specs for flexible brake hoses".
"Each individual hose assembly is pressure tested at 4000 psi after manufacture."
The catalog lists front hoses for Contours 95-96. Earl's sells only thru dealers, I would call Bill at Chicago Connection 773-229-0655. He's set a few of us up with Ford Racing plug wires, and everyone's been happy with the prices and service.
