SS brake line install instructions

How did they mess it up? Is it leaking? My guess is they didn't seat the hard line properly in the SS line before tightening it down.

That was the problem I had when I did my clutch line install. But I don't see why you would need instructions for that. I'm assuming it was something more drastic.

This! And not sure if they routed the lines correctly either. anyone here or know anyone with issues with Z1 lines? They are the non-premium version.
