Default Hydraulic ram hose path??

I'm half way through the replacement of the 6 hydraulic hoses on my 2003 XKR, the two latch hoses were a pain in the bum, for sure but installed.
I'm now trying to find the path for the rear drivers side (US car) hydraulic hoses. They seem to disappear under the rear parcel shelf. Looked at all the link's on previous chats and no one seems to have mentioned it, I think. Do you need to remove the parcel shelf? Or do you need to try and get to it in the boot/trunk?
I have had to down tools until I can figure this out, frustrating job in the first place and I could feel my blood pressure raise.
The car is totally ripped apart. Will be amazing if it all go's back together.
Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

If you have the rear pad of the rear seat removed just lift the rear sill liner and you will find the two hoses. They go from the driver’s side to the passenger’s side.

OMG, all I had to do was lift the material on the rear parcel shelf and there were the two hoses running across the back of the car.
Thanks for your response. Just needed some time for my head to clear before returning to the project. Will have a fresh start in the morning.
Thanks again.
