Seen this item on ebay LAND ROVER MILITARY CORRUGATED CABLE PROTECTION TUBING (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4548100280&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1) and wondered without bidding on this item where else can I buy some from :?:
Cheers.

ebay
:wink: :P

Very good :D
-
is that what u put the cables in, if so i think you can get some from maplins or a simalar store like that :lol: :lol: :lol:

Caravan dealers.... Waste water pipe, Come in different diameters too. :wink:

It's cheap at the mo. Would cost more driving to the shops to try and find it! :wink:
-
If it's the 'Spilt-Stuff' (open on one side), Argos & IKEA sell it as 'Hi-Fi cable tidier'
Alternatively
Vehicle Wiring Products
Maplins (Regent Street in Leeds)
PRB Services (between Armley & Wortley - if you want ex-MOD)
There's also a very interesting ex-MOD/Government 'scientific' surplus store in Leeds near the train-station.
It's at the top of Sovereign Street (where the Queens Hall used to be before it was knocked down) & opposite the 'Scarbrough Hotel'
-
The other thing would be garden hose, when you've threaded the wires, seal the ends up with a couple inches of silicon
Just to be sure you have enough cables, ad a few extra on what you want to use straight away :wink:
-
Vehicle wiring products, failing that go to a scrap yard and rip some off an old car.

RS components do that stuff in various sizeshttp://rswww.com/cgi-bin/bv/home/Home.jsp?cacheID=ukie

Cheers, few to go at there :D

The RS page in question
Flexible Condiuiting (http://rswww.com/cgi-bin/bv/browse/Module.jsp?BV_SessionID=@@@@1406429585.1115413632@@@@&BV_EngineID=ccccaddehjgmdmicefeceefdffhdglf.0&cacheID=ukie&3292866513=3292866513&catoid=-84006091)
The only problem is that RS is trade only, can your engineering guys order some (if you offer to pay)?

It looks pretty much like the convoluted tubing we got from VWP to do your rack lights. VWP do varying sizes as well I think plus the couplers and T's etc.
Also see here http://www.adaptaflex.co.uk/ for lots and lots of different types - any good electrical wholesaler will get this stuff for you.

Cheers Chris, VWP was my first option as I ordered from them before but I just wondered if anywhere else sold this stuff.
