If you really struggle to find you could make them yourself out of piece of alloy and a hose.

P clips

Repco wgtn now has a selection out the back of exactly what you want.

also try costal fastenings (sp), on Able Smith street

Very last option I would try schroders...

You can get hose seperators, but so far I haven't found any that are actually brackets

i just p-cliped each line in opposites at certain points and then cable tied the other line to it. seemed to turn out neat enough.

i notice you have run yours through the inside of the car, what requirements are there to run feul lines through the car and is this better than running the lines down underneth?

Requirements:

http://www.ltsa.govt.nz/certifiers/virm ... -13-v3.pdf (Never managed to find any LVVTA standards)

and if you're planning on doing MSNZ affiliated events

MSNZ Book 34 Schedule A, section 5.1(2) wrote:Flexible hoses: shall be used to join components of a fluid system where movement exists between them.Hoses containing cooling water or lubricating oil must be located outside the cockpit except where the following criteria are met and when hoses are substituted from the manufacturers original specification the following minimum requirements shall apply;
(a) A minimum burst pressure of 70 bar(1000psi), and
(b) A minimum operating temperature of 135°C (250°F), and
(c) Have threaded connectors, and
(d) Have an outer braiding resistant to abrasion and flame, and
(e) Be of a type suitable for the fluid concerned, and
(f) Be adequately located, and
(g) Have no evidence of leakage.

Note: Push-fit connectors may only be used where they have been specifically designed for use this way.


As for is there any advantage to doing so?
MSNZ Book 34 Schedule A, Section 7 - Rally Vehicles – Additional Requirements wrote:7.1 Safety Critical Items:
(1) Fuel, Oil and Brake lines and Brake cables: External lines and cables shall be protected from damage (stones, corrosion, mechanical breakages, body flex, etc.). Internal lines shall be protected from accidental contact.


I plan on doing some tarmac rallys, so it makes meets this criteria (when i cover them on the inside) without the need for underbody protection. Also i am not using any of the factory lines that run under the car (3 fuel and 2 brake lines) as my brake lines run through the car also (through hydraulic handbrake and adjustable bias valve) so it worked out neater.
