AC Picture Request

Kind of an odd request but can someone who has a driver side compressor mount setup please post a picture of their engine bay?

After 4 years of owning a car with no AC components whatsoever due to an idiot PO I am getting ready to piece it all back together and want to prepare myself for how not-so-bad or how intolerable the looks of the AC hoses horseshoeing over the core support are going to be.

Thanks.

Engine bay is not stock, but the A/C routing is.

I'm a bit confused. I thought the stock routing was for the compressor hose to horseshoe over top of the core support in front of the TPI airlid.

On your car is disappears down in front of the radiator.

What you describe I have never heard of before.

Here is a super old picture of my engine bay. There are clips that hold the a/c lines to the same bolts as the two top fan bolts. You can see one of them in the bottom right corner of this picture. This is the stock routing for an '87 350TPI Camaro. I'll see if I can grab some more pictures tonight.
