I don't have a picture, but assuming you have the correct parts, they are installed exactly like factory. Use new screws (if they come with the kit) and place the washers on both sides of the banjo fitting on the caliper.

1) Yes re-use the OEM clip
2) The spring goes on the hardline side (NOT the caliper side).
