koni yellow users (brake lines)

did you guys just use zip-ties or how did you mount the brake lines afterwards to the shock?

transfer the stock brake line holders from the OEM shocks to the Konis. I haven't used koni's myself but this works on most shocks.

^^ yup, transfer the holders onto the yellows and problem is solved.

I have both, and there is no clearance problems.

I didn't do this - I used zip ties.

although, if the car needs to pass inspection, they require the lines to be bolted down.

Stupid holders won't fit over Zeals, zip ties for me. But if they'll fit definitely use them.

Re: koni yellow users (Chris93Si)

The biggest problem with the zip ties is that if your using a steel braided brake line it will rub all the paint off the Koni's.
