should do for book spec not sure if you have a grp tub. ginge is the chap to ask as i gave him 3m and he has a grp tub. the cross bar is just under 1m from memory so that will leave you with 1m for each back stay. may be worth getting the tape measure out.

My cross bar and rear stays are all just under 1m (930mm) so 3m should do you.
