Best material to wrap wiring loom for IVA ?
Evening all,
Just about finished my wiring loom now, and thoughts are turning towards finally wrapping / protecting it.
In everyones experience, whats the best to use when also considering IVA requirements ?. Ive got some twist wrap, but that looks a pain to fit TBH.
Cloth tape maybe to ?, or is spiral wrap allowed ?
Cheers
Tris

Split convoluted PVC conduit would be much nicer and easier, plenty on ebay
Duratec Engine is fitted, MS2 Extra V3 is assembled and tested, engine running, car now built. IVA passed 26/02/2016

Yep, that's what I'm using. I've also used looming tape in a lot of places, but the tubing will give it extra protection and look
neater
It looks like the Midget is winning at the moment......

I used PVC loom tape, passed SVA with it but if I needed to leave part of the loom bare where wires went to different places (eg; dashboard) I used
self amalgamating tape to bind the end of the tape wrapping. The reason was that insulating tape can become loose or loose its grip in time.
