Re: hooking up after market regulator, disconection old. The tube on the top marked "R" goes into the regulator. Remove the locking clip and pull out the stock reg (its a golden colored button with a small vent tube on it), but be careful as there is a mesh screen and an o-ring behind it. After I pulled mine I cut and flared the line going to the T-block under the car and ran my new return from the engine to the newly flared line. I couldnt find a plug for the stock T-block, so I cut and flared both of those lines and installed a -6 union.
(I'll email a few pics. Sorry I dont have a pic of the intank reg.)

Re: hooking up after market regulator, disconection old. You still havent got it off yet? Is the fuel module out of the car? If so:
1. hold it in front of you
2. Find plastic port w/ "R" on it
3. follow down to underside of module top
4. it runs to the thing that resembles your pulse damper on fuel rail.
5. remove the metal clip
6. pull out regulator
7. watch for screen and o-ring
