Vacuum line replacement

Looking for inspiration. Has anyone replaced the color coded plastic vacuum line with rubber/silicone. Looking for inspiration on routing and clamping and product used. Thanks in advance.

I replaced the vacuum lines on a 1993 Bronco with a 302 with 5/32" rubber vacuum line from O'Reillys. It requires two 5/32" tees as well. Replace it one line at a time and you should be fine. Where the existing wire loom cracked apart, I used 3/8" split flex tubing. You can find it at any hardware store. The 3/8" is ok for enclosing a single line, but 1/2" may be a little easier to work with.

Mine used just shy of 25-ft of hose and took maybe an hour.
