On my '96, 2 bolts hold the bracket to the wheel well, and a third bolt holds the ASR unit to a small brace that runs up near the brake master cylinder. Once those are out, I can just flop the box out of the way (with the bracket still attached).

disconnect it from the wheelwell I think it is only two bolts. Then use a bungie cord to hold it out of the way without disconnecting anything else.

Hose? Do you mean the accelerator cable?

ps - this is the easy side, wait until you get to #6 and #8.
