Even if I use the clips they'll only prevent movement in one direction, the other depending on the kink in the hard line and contact with the inner fender ( RF). This because the new line end will slide right down through the hole in the bracket . I could use plastic ties but I'm a worrier and need things to be perfect before I can forget them. Every single movement up or down will stress this 'location device'. I'll have to buy another set. BYPRODRIVER has said that a certain type of Porsche race car ( Porsche Cup?) used OEM rubber coated lines. Maybe they're good enough after all. I've always wanted the stainless but do they really offer any benefit?
