o bung the holes u cut the lines
live about 2" on each and and use a piece of oil cooler hose to both of them with hose clamps in a U shpe if ya understand
power from amp NOT to be seen is a new 1
maybe it was poorly mounted?

re run it from battery alogn the drivers side wheel arch and mount it securely
U could run it INSIDE the wheel arch as part of the cars' wiring loom is there

Damn. Glad we dont have RWC here. I would have to do so much. As for the oil lines i think at the wrecker they just pulled them out, cut them short and flattened the ends with the vice and attacked it with the oxy. put em back in and all was fine.
