That sticker says it all ^__^
Or go to a autoparts store and buy the padded loops. (can't think of a better name for them) Basically you clip them onto the line and they have a rubber around so it doesn't dig into your line. Then run a self tapping screw threw the hole and your secure. | |

I used a few of these with some self tapes in a few places and a few zipties. 
Search for plastic cable clamps you should be able to find them at ACE Lows them kinda places.

either of the two clips will work.
EasyStreet kits usually come with those clamps/clips for installing in the box. But you bought your kit used right?
When I ran my air ride on my old car, I ran it all threw the interior. And if I was to bag the xB, it'd be the same way. Except with a false floor behind the seats for a 5gal, valves, and compressors. | |

I used a combination of both (hose clamps above) and zipties in certain places. I ran the driverside airline up where the fuel lines run. The passenger side I ran on the side of the frame rail and used the hose clamps with about 3 holding the line up. Zip ties were used in random places to hold the line up out of the way and secured. | |

yeah yeah what they said.
I also used the zip ties that have the screw hole on them to screw them to the car as well in the places that have nothing to tie to, just like the clamps that were posted. |
