Default Roadster Pneumatic Line routing and repair of non-working drivers door lock

Hi All,
My drivers side door lock stopped responding to the FOB or the console switch. Switching the pneumatic lines at the CLP/SS confirmed that I had a leak in the pneumatic line going to the drivers door. Search as I might online, I never found how the pneumatic lines are routed in a chrysler crossfire roadster or SLK 320 either. So the bottom line is I traced them from the CLP/SS in the trunk to the firewall - the drivers and passenger door pneumatic lines go up from the trunk down the back passenger side wall near the speaker, under the middle of the passenger floor, and split left and right at the passenger firewall. I couldn't find how the lines run on the firewall, but eventually they make it to the kick panels, and into the doors. Attached is a pdf with pictures of my troubleshooting and the pneumatic line routing. It ultimately turned out to be a mouse chewed through the drivers door pneumatic line under the passengers carpet. Hopes this helps someone else.

YOu are very fortunate that no wiring damage was done. Well, none that has surfaced so far.
