Vacuum line / Slant Windshield

[apbright]

Would anyone be able to say, or have a picture of, how the vacuum line for the wiper motor is fitted in the interior, along the A-pillar and header board (i.e. around the windshield)? When I got the car, it had a replacement electric wiper, (which I am replacing with a vacuum unit), and so got no guide has to how the vacuum line should be run. I have the standard repro. vacuum lines, but it isn't obvious to me whether these are meant to run inside the wood of the header board + inside the A-pillar, or on the outside of the upholstery.

This is for a Slant Windshield Town Sedan, if relevant.

Any advice very welcome!

Thanks, Andrew

These are pictures that I took of my SW 4D TS.

I hope that these help you.

The attached photos are of a Victoria restoration (which has a slant window) that shows the routing of the vacuum lines around the windshield.

My SW Cabriolet has a vacuum tube which disappears into the firewall, then comes up, along the forward door post, then is hidden by the "Header" shielding and then bends out as shown for the windshield wiper connection.

Right, OK, will give this a try. Thanks to all!
