Hi all,
This next week im blitzing my car.
First job is the copper brake lines!
What would be the best thing to hold these onto the frame?
Fabricate a metal holder?
Or a plastic clip?
Or the P Clips?

Mr SVA loves the use of proper OE clips, Peugeot ones are cheap

O.E - original equipment ie from a dealers. Id use P clips and get a few sizes and quite a lot as you will probably want to use them for fuel, brakes, wiring, water etc

Don't fit copper brakes pipe.

Buy the proper stuff for the job Kunifer

Proper OEM push in style clips are the way to go just drill a hole and push --

Local motor factor should have them or http://www.cbsonline.co.uk/push-in-brake-pipe-clips-bpc2-10pcs-976-p.asp
