Default supporting brake lines RV-7

I have neatly routed the aluminum brake lines from the firewall fittings along the bottom tube of the engine mount to each side. Looks great but now I can't see how to get an Adel clamp around that bottom tube. Just the latest in a long string of corners I've painted myself into. Someone throw me a rope.

Default Zip Ties

I split some clear tubing, slipped it over the brake lines to form a cushion and zip tied them to the engine mount.
