Ok so I have started to run the air lines through the k1 and remembered that the interior is gunna have to come out to make my life easier so striped everything out
After that it was time to start running the lines from the rear to the front

Passengers side first

As you can see the power for the air being run too all under the carpets of the car as I don't want to have to worries about catching the air line whilst driving
