Tunnel stuff

I was thinking about how things are routed in the tunnel and
came to the conclusion that I am not sure how everything fits:

1) Landing gear in middle.
2) Rudder cables at bottom left/right.
3) Flap pushrod at top (right side?)
4) Brake at top left side.
5) Fuel lines (2 if I use the parallel fuel) somewhere
6) Antenna lines somewhere
7) Battery cables somewhere
8) Trim tab wires
9) Nav light wires (if fitted)

How does all this fit?  How can I be sure that a rock kicked up by
the landing gear will not puncture a fuel line?  There is also a danger of
the rudder cables sawing through a wire if they are not kept apart.

BTW, I have had a couple people recommend using Teflon fuel lines, but
neither Aircraft Spruce or Wicks has such a thing.  Are the Tygon fuel
lines the same thing?
