Very easy....

I installed ss lines on all four corners and it was extremely easy. Make sure you've got a brake line wrench to loosen the connections - you definitely don't want to mangle the hard line the ss line attaches to. The wrench looks like a box end with a slot cut out of it.
There is a clip that needs to be removed where the flex line attaches to the hard line (it inserts around a grove around the hard coupler at the end of the flex line) - it pulls straight out. Only do one wheel at a time. This gives you one wheel to reference back to if you forget the way the flex line routes around behind the caliper.
Once you've got the ss line installed it is just a matter of using the normal bleeding procedure to get the air out of the lines - do a search on "brake bleeding" - there are several threads that describe the process (remember to start at the ABS box under the hood!).
Good luck.
