Default Engine out shots of bulk head fuel lines and what top mounts?

Hi there,

Im i've put my fuel lines back in and they don't look right, my mate took them out seemingly by bending them out the car (fool) and im not sure if i have them the right way round.... (should have taken photos )

Also, im considering getting these http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140347832094&ru=http%3 A%2F%2Fshop.ebay.co.uk%3A80%2F%3F_from%3DR40%26_tr ksid%3Dp5039.m570.l1313%26_nkw%3D140347832094%26_s acat%3DSee-All-Categories%26_fvi%3D1&_rdc=1

Long link lol

Any one got any experience with them, pros/cons etc

Cheers

Rob,

Are these correct? they look more correct than mine anyway!!!, mine are not bent up, the ends go toward the passenger side inner wing....

And Gus your engine bay looks very cool.

Rob,

ha was thinking that looks like mine yes mate thats the way i took them off you have to loosen the rack to get them off with out bending them. they clip on at the top.
i try to make some before and it was the hardest thing in the world. even had my mam helping me because i was losing my head

Mine are the same as your rob, but im thinking of replacing mine with braided ones rather than trying to get mine off and painting them.

This only shows one fitted as I'd gone braided in the meantime, but they were the same as you have. My MK3 lines are short and upwards, like in Brams.



Also one for Gus, do the bolts from your top mounts fit flush with the turret? As I've drilled my holes and the angle they go into the top mount is more upright than the angle of the turret, so the bottoms of the bolts don't sit flush with the turret. You can just see on this photo.



PS. Those eBay ones look quite expensive compared to the Compbrake ones which i think mine are.
