On my 2019 (with ABS) when I swapped to SS lines I used this stuff:

I think all I needed was a single 500ml bottle. The specs on the fluid seem great and for the price. I have used Motul RBF 600 and RBF 660 in my car which both have slightly better specs but again, for my use case the Total stuff was perfectly fine. I think if money were no object I would go with the Castrol SRF but I like to bleed my brakes frequently.

Just for reference the Total is $14 CAD for 500ml, the RBF 600 is about $28 CAD, the RBF 660 about $35 CAD and the Castrol SRF is $110 but that is in a 1L which sucks because once you open it, it starts to absorb water. That said the wet boiling point is still crazy high so even fully "hydrated" on paper it looks like it still would outperform everything else.

Until I start boiling my Total fluid, I see no need to move up to anything else.
