You need to remove the wiper module to gain access to the lines up top.
Remove the wiper arms, remove the plastic grill under the wiper arms ( the
torx screws come out, the phillips screws are j-hooks and only get 1/2 turn
to release) Carefully lift up grill and disconnect washer hose from
passenger side. Remove grill.. Now you will be able to see the wiper
module.remove wiring connector on drivers side. remove drain tubes from
bottom on both ends. Remove the small nuts near the base of the windshield,
remove the bolts holding the module to the firewall, lift out wiper module.
Now you should be able to get to the hose clamps. There is one stud holding
the heater lines to firwall , the hose connections under the van and one
bolt under the van. With everything disconected pull the lines out from up
top. Reverse to install. It's really not a bad job, just take your time.

Are you referring to the a/c lines? if so you have to remove the wiper
assembly to start
