ReRouting Power Steering Lines

Ok ok i know rerouting the lines is somewhat necessary for the S/C to fit in its snug new home, but i read on someone's install that instead of completely moving the PS lines to infront of the radiator down low, that i could just scoot them over and not have them interfere? Basically i like where my power steering lines are and would rather not have to completely move(unhook and bend them- not an issue since Jaime gave me his bent lines) and instead just scoot them next to and under the fuse box. Any comments to how you went about it would be great, also how do i drain the PS fluid if i do move them because i don't want fluid getting all over the place.

It is soooo much easier to replace them and the parts cannot be very expensive at all...plus once you rip out the stock ones you will realize the engineers are complete sadists for the way they bent and installed the freaking things

Dude!!! I thought the same when I did not have my lines. I thought I can just scoot them aside. HAA! I thought wrong. it was hard to work with bending and trying to part them aside. Much more easier to just replace them.
