Was curious if I need these or should I take them out and/or fill them? I do not know what they go to. There are 4 of these tubes. One opposite of this one and two near the back of the tunnel. I believe the last one is the fuel line for a Bug?

Also, the tabs along the tunnel near the pan. Are these to secure the brake lines?

Tabs are to secure front to rear brake line should you decide to run it inside the car, {bad idea in my opinion}. The tubes at the front of the tunnel sides were from the front floor heat vent doors and the rear ones were for rear floor heat. They are only needed if you choose to install factory heat. They were controlled by the left lever on the park brake handle, right lever turned heat on and off.
Fuel line enters the tunnel on the top just behind the torsion tubes but in front of the firewall. 'It exits on the top side of the left trans support horn. I always run my brake and fuel lines ouside the pass conp under the floor just like any other car. Tucking then into the channel that the floor to body bolts are found keeps them out of harms way. They last a long time and should they leak it will be easy to locate and repair. No chance of gas fumes inside the car.

Thank you. Much appreciated. I have never owned an actual Bug. Just a rail buggy and my Bradley. Looks like I can get rid of these. Don't want them cutting into the carpet.
