Default vent hose left inner tie rod boot

Any tricks or suggestions otherwise how to re-connect the small air venting hose that fits onto the boot over the left inner tie rod on the steering rack on a 92 Accord? The right side was easy but the left side location seems almost impossible because of the tight space where you can't get your hands.

I just went threw this same thing. What i did and it may not be the easiest but worked. I disconnected the passenger side then the hose sits in these little clips along the top of the steering rack, took it out of those now you have all slack and its still a pain in the *** but i was able to get it on then installed everything back in reverse order hope this works for you to.

Ah okay thanks. I at least thought about the idea of trying to trace where the hose goes and see if I could disconnect some clips or something along the way to get some slack at least. But before I got a chance to see your reply here I finally managed to connect it using a couple pairs of long skinny needle nose in that tight dark space while grit and dirt fell into my face. Fun stuff that was.
