Look at some pictures on his site & see how he has them routed. I mocked mine up first out of some old garden hose, & made the "real" hose for less than $10 each.

Wow how in the world did you make them for 10 bucks? I'm hoping to get out of the shop under 250!

6 feet of hose & 4 crimps. Getting the Ford sized hose to fit the Mazda hard lines is quite a workout. LOL.
