Assistance with Front Brake Lines

I am reconnecting my front brake lines on my Bug Eye after many months, I can’t locate my removal notes nor can I locate photos of how the lines connect from master cylinder to the brass tee on bulkhead and from the front wheels to the tee as well as how/where the rear line connects and finally, the clutch slave.
I have replaced the front drums with disc brakes, that doesn’t change the plumbing of the lines as I understand it.

If anyone has notes and pictures of the plumbing and particularly how the lines connect to the tee I would be grateful to see them.

I purchased new lines that I am bending to fit.

Thanks

Rhodyspit, thanks, very helpful. Do you have a pic of your firewall, where lines run from master cylinder?

If nothing else I would enjoy admiring your lovely car, just beautiful.

Thanks so much

Here’s two more. I’m using the larger line to the clutch slave cylinder so it’s routed different from the original. Thanks for the compliment 9591F609-CA06-4482-A188-4571EFE7C4B0.jpg022B754C-58D2-4B77-BEC5-700C39F2C545.jpg
