Remote reservoir damper mounting and hose routing

Just pulled the trigger on 2-way MCS coilovers with remotes for my 987.2. I enjoy working on my car and intend to self-install.

Where did mount your remotes?

Where did you route the hose?

Pictures or links would be amazing. I'm having trouble finding specific 987 examples.

This is how Dundon ran my rear lines when they worked on the car a few months ago. I don't know how they routed them into the interior from the exterior but will need to dive a bit into that when the car is in the air again. They needed to move my lines from their previous location when they installed the new muffler as the previous routing had the canister lines a little too close to the revised OAPs.

Thanks again @Kinsman890! I used the same holes in the rear.

They come out above the heat shield that sits between the exhaust and the trunk floor. I was able to fish the lines through by passing some safety wire through, then a rubber hose, then taping the lines to the hose and pulling through. I drilled and slit the factory plug to use as a grommet. I added heat shielding to the hose after snapping this pic.

The holes in the front come out just inside the damper in the wheel well. They're in the front outside corners of the utility area under the plastic covers just behind the frunk (just outside the battery) It was easy to just pass the line through the drains that were there. The picture shows the drain that fills the hole.

The drive is night and day. I can't wait to get it on track.
