I think I ordered circa 50 metres of 1", didn't use 3/4 for tunnel.

I've got it written down at work as I've recently ordered two sets. I'll have a look in the morning.

I ordered 6 x 25x25x1.5 erw box. 2 x 20x20x1.5 erw box and 2 x 19x1.5 erw tube. These are all 6m long. We add a few extra bars over the standard book
chassis for racing so this may be more than is needed for a standard build.

2nd engine bay diagonal brace. Two diagonals under the dash to the tunnel and an extra floor bar. They are the dotted lines on page nine of the 2015
regs.
There are also a couple on page 12.
