Default escort mk3 mk4 brake pipes ??

alright guys this might sound a bit daft but im putting together my mk3 xr3i after a restoration and need to know how the front and rear brake pipes go. where the steel pipes meet the flexis .just the general order of fixing together,a couple of pics would be great .ive thrown all the fittings for front and rear in the same bag thinking i could do it all from memory cheers matty
