BTW, can anyone tell me what the deal is with that retaining clip for the front brake hoses?

You mean the one between the line and the hose? Did you read my writeup?
Its just there to keep it tight. It totally encircles the line ( no gap). Thus, the ONLY way to remove it is to separate the brake line ( steel/alloy) from the hose ( rubber/braid). The it falls off.
Use a really good line wrench or there's some % chance you'll regret it big time. I like the SKs or the craftsman professional full polish headlocks (every word there is imporatnt).
It also acts as a strain releif - the junction is held in place so that motion does nto put torque on the rigid line.

Pick up this Bentley and you'll be all set...
I think my Mom's oldsmobile wagon had the same radio!
