Default Correct placement of rear left brake line

By good fortune of having the remains of left side rear line, my replacement does go along past the hole that Keith is referring to. I'm glad you mentioned that Keith. I had initially thought that was quite a tight fit there and considered NOT going through there, but eventually did it same way.

Not looking forward to ordering the bolts etc for front springs, bearing in mind the amout of effort it took to get the dimension of rear bolt from the guy at Macs. It was a simple request for one measurement, but they asked for the vehicle type and model, then said 'sorry, Macs does not supply parts for your application'. One more email later, reminding them I wasn't asking for suitability just a technical spec., I eventually got my affirmative answer. For some reason, some of these companies (both online & over counter) seem to feel that if it's not in their vehicle compatability list then it can't possibly be suitable. That really shits me to be honest. Give me fact, not opinions.
