I haven't touched mine for quite a while and don't really remember what they even look like so I couldn't have caught any mistakes. I do remember that they were attached to that black vacuum ball though...and you should be able to cut and connect them as needed if you have the right connectors...only do that if absolutely necessary and everything has a good tight fit.
One of the problems with messing with that vacuum line (or any for that matter) is that the vacuum is created by the engine and if a line has even a hairline crack or opening it can give you erotic, er, erratic idle and other problems that you really don't need.
I removed the connector behind the dash panel once to have a look and didn't put it back on properly...when I started the engine up a while later there was a miss and stutter in the engine that wasn't there before...fortunately I didn't leave this too long before starting because it would have taken me hours to backtrack to the vacuum lines...
