Cheers Kev, yep thats it; the brace-bit is a shiny squished/ ovalised tube.

They also have the carbon variety as well I think - as per Max\'s engine bay:

Think Max has sold his stocker?

If he has Geff has a \'2nd user\' Cusco one same as the one in kev\'s link above on the wall too in the workshop - going for about Â£120 I think...couple of marks on it but will look nice and shiny when the workshop grime is removed I\'m sure

Dan have you got a picture of yer rear strur brace as mine currently has CD changer in the boot which i presume will need shifting for such a bad boy but it\'d be nice to see what it looks like as pikky on takakaira is clearly of a different motor

Is it the "3 point rear OS strut" i presume?

Si, I will take a picture tomorrow and post it.

I have the 40 PHi top bar (big round unit, same size as John Helps carbon unit) and the OS floor mounts.

If you have the storage bins at the back, instead of the so called seats, it meets the floor pan at the centre nut.
