Sorry I do not have a photo of them installed. You can go to rooducts.com and see a picture of one installed. Although it's not a BRZ, it's very similar.
But from these pics of mine on the bench (sorry I couldn't figure out how to get them right side up), I think you'll get the idea. The inlet is on the underside of the LCA with the output nozzle wrapping up and around the backside of the LCA and pointed at the hat area of the rotor. The output nozzle has to be tucked in tight to the LCA so it doesn't interfere with the tie rod at full lock--that's the reason for the trapezoidal shape.
Circumference of the output nozzle is about 7"--maybe equal to a 2 1/4" round hose.
Like Icecreamtruk, I don't see why you wouldn't be able to connect them to a hose but you should check with Randy at RooDucts.
