where to run lines when upgrading to clip-ons on a s2r800 or similar

purchased a pair of new vortex 7% clipons from the local classifieds for $40. woohoo. had considered with a rise in the clip-on but for $40 hard to pass. dont know if they will stay but want to give it a try.
being doing some reading here and some issues are known. the coffins and the lenght of the bars. fittment around the headlight mount. knocking the tank and suggestion to purchase new lines.
what I was hoping for was someone to post photos so i can see where to run the lines.
I am not mechanical and I cannot see it in my mind. I dont have a garage so it has to be a one day project and the last thing i want to do is ending trailering the bike somewhat cause i cant figure it out after taking it apart. thanks in advance.
any advise would be appreciated. I have read and saved a couple of threads already posted but pearls of wisdom are always welcome. one thing i do know .. the stock bars are too high for me. just dont suit my riding style.

Spacers for the coffins to clear the clip on clamps. Check?
Completely reroute the brake (and probably) the clutch lines. Maybe the lines will go straight towards the headlight assembly.... nowhere to route them through/around those points?
Tools and equipment to bleed the brakes and clutch afterwards. Check?

I have an S2R800 that used to run clip ons. my solution was to get brake calipers from a 998, master cylinders from an 848, and custom lines from Spiegler. at the time, the calipers were about 200$ and the masters were about $300 (with the levers and reservoirs).
Huge upgrade over the stock calipers and masters. If you have to get new lines, might as well get them for the ideal setup.
