No, not a bad idea. We just use hoses with formed 90s at the firewall, but taking the time to do the copper will make things very neat. Make sure you pressure test before the dash goes back and retighten the clamps after they've sat for a day or two.

Seems like a cleaner fit and really isn't much work. Plenty of room behind the blend box and whatnot to do it. Just going to use 1/2" copper pipe, with hose to attach to the core like factory. Bad idea??
