Pic of the front, no back pic's, but it's pretty straight forward, I suggest using a flared wrench rather than a regular open wrench.

yeah Goodridge tho. by just observing and checking my stock rubber lines, there was a lot of junk on them. so im optin to get ones with an abrasion resistant cover. at least the clutch line is covered honda engine bay's get dirty fast.

yo hella, i say go with the earls, because the fitment on the goodridge is pretty janky. I mean, there are some pretty sick bends in the way you have to run it to not rub

also, you notice on the picture up there of the earls line, how it has that tension spring next to the hard line? That **** seems like it would really firm up your pedal. You have a 5 lug right? do you run the 1" mc/bb?

I just installed my earls lines for my civic. The lines were for the 99-00 Si, but I put them in a 97 HX. The mounting spots look the same as in your picture, but if I try to make the line fit it nearly kinks. I ended up just zip-tie'ing the middle link, and it seems okay, but I just hate being ghetto. Was it a tight squeeze for you at all?

i have 99 Si fron lca's forks, and sway bar, so mine bolted up fine... rears matched fine on my 99 civic rear w/ CTR setup. i don't have the mounts for the front lca's though, so i'm going to order them when i can... for now the line is mounted to the strut mount.

So is it true that these SS brake lines really firm up pedal feel? If so, is it only just a little bit or what? I'm thinking about getting some cuz the pedal feel in my 93 Del Sol Si could use a little more firming up.
