What to do with the vacuum tubes and wiring harness on firewall?

[skippyman87]

Trying to get the engine bay ready for paint, I was looking into removing some more things to look cleaner. I wanted to know what you guys have done to the vacuum lines on the right side of the bracket on lower passenger side firewall. I was thinking about cutting them and capping them but just wanted to make sure that was ok to do.

I also removed the harness with the solenoids that go along the top side of the firewall for emissions. Do I still need this connector, if so why? If not what have you guys done to hide it?

those hard lines are your brakes and fuel lines to and from the rail + the charcoal filter. if you want to move them for cleaning jack the car up and unbolt them off the car then reinstall them after painting.

that's what i did.
