If you drain the tank, lift the car and remove the alu plate from under the rear of the car and have a extended flex clamp compression tool, you can do the job in just over an hour... use a pair of rubber coated hose pinch pliers on the engine side of the pipes and you wont leak more than a drop :-) Oh and word of advise... careful with the three way passthrough plate for the hoses... the smaller one breaks off easily (ask me how I know ) The other option is to cut them off, drill them out and replace them with 3 brass pipe fittings and get rid of the plastic ones all together - thats what i did, so no more worries if they might break!
