Default Picture Request (Clutch Hard Lines)

I'm trying to install the hard lines from the master cylinder to the damper. Problem is, I bought these over the internet and the guy that shipped it slightly bent it into a circle to fit it in the box. I am trying to reshape it into the original form. If anyone has pictures of an empty manual engine bay it would be extremely helpful. I can't seem to get the placement and fitment right.

that really sucks, id return it. the chances of unbending it without cripming it are against you.

I unbent it just fine, it was pinched in any way, just gently bent. I just cant figure out exactly how it was.

hondaautomotiveparts.com or slhondaparts.com....just look up the clutch system and it will show you a diagram.

I did but it's all blown up and separated, it would just be easier to see one installed, I might just toss it and look for a local shop that can make a SS line and even bypass the damper. Would you recommend removing the damper?

Yeah, I removed my damper and made a full SS line...turned out pretty good. There's a big thread about it

I would be weary of bending your line back into shape. Back and forth bending of those lines will snap them in a second if you go too far...

Yea, thats why I asked, I saw a thread a while back and I just wanted to get an VERY well experienced opinion. I was surprised, because I was so expecting it to kink or snap.

How about a stainless clutch line conversion? It looks much cleaner without the line running over the firewall. It also seems to be easier to remove the slave cylinder if you ever have to replace it. mgags7 had one but I think he sold it already. You could ask him where he got it from.
