This prevented over flattening & distorton of the tube

I would make you a couple of pieces up but alas....I have no more of the 25mm seamless tube left

Can't remember the length either & cannot get to may chassis to measure it for you.

140-150mm seems to ring a bell though
David.......

Ronnie doesn,t have any 25mm tube left cos he made my headlamp stalks

& the way Ronnie has described how to make them works a treat...... cos they look really smart on MY chassis

Thanks Ronnie, they do look the business

cheers
