is there no bracket? the fitting on the end of the stainless line should partially pass through the bracket. as the fitting on the end of the hard line tightens onto the stainless line the clip pushes against the bracket and holds the assembly in place. google images "boxster brake line"; you'll find pics and the pelican how-to.

thanks guys, I'll have a go at it using the OEM clip and see how it feels. Thanks.

For the record, I have found I am able to install the stainless lines with the stock 'lock- clip' device after bending it somewhat, into a revised shape. This is less than ideal as it appears to be a piece of hardened steel and as such should not be permanently bent as it makes it forever more fragile/ brittle. I'll report any failure of said piece(s) here. I wonder if there's a set of lines available which use their own device, instead of the OEM clip?
