So I pulled my brake lines off the firewall and I'm going to move them to the other side of the firewall. Just wonder how other guys have done it. I've got an idea about how I want to do it, but doesn't hurt to see how other people do it.

Here's how I did mine. I removed all the wiper garbage, and the bolt that holds the middle of the linkage one is where I mounted my p valve, I just drilled two small 3/8s holes and ran the lines to it. Then for the rest of the car, I drilled two holes on the sides on the sides of the cowl, and ran my fronts to the front and backs down the wheel well to the middle of the tunnel and ran them back to their respective sides.



Edit 3, I fail at cell phone forum usage.

If you want any other pictures or angles, let me know.
 
^^^Those brake lines look like they were a rush job. I don't see a point in doing it if the brake lines are run in an uglier fashion than OEM.

Bulkhead fittings for brake lines and get a bender and flare tool. Take your time.
 
The bends were done with a bender and a flare tool, I didn't like the way they looked underneath the powersteering line so I ran it above it. Explain how it looks rushed? Two lins with one 90 degree bend is pretty hard to rush. There's no need for bulkhead fittings, it doesn't go through the bulk head. The honda guys all run the lines and p valve inside the car by the center console / passenger foot area behind carpet if it has it.. typically. I'm open to suggestions, are you thinking I used the stock lines or something? Aside from the one line going above the other I don't think there is much difference in the oem lines. And the one picture doesn't show enough to pass judgement really. How would you have done it ?
 
This is my plan for my lines. Something similar to this:
