Hydraulic hinges for 03 Z4

I just recently had my hinges rebuilt. It's the first time I've had the top off. I should have taken pictures, but my son who is an engineer said not to worry. Now we are reassembling the hinges to the top and are not quite sure where some of the small doodads go and how the lines might be tie wrapped. Where could I get some accurate pictures or diagrams ? I'd had to put it back on the car and have to worry about pinched hydraulic lines. Thanks in Advance.
