You can run everything down the tunnel, but electrics and fuel have to be run seperately. P-clipping is essential, for everything - for IVA there is
a mandatory spacing of 300mm for electrics. However, you will fail if brake lines rub against ANYTHING which could chafe. There is quite a few guys
on here who will advise you NOT to use rubber fuel lines in the tunnel (and one or two who say they've used rubber ones but never had one leak.
Personally, I fitted rubber ones, then, after weighing up the arguments (and before it was too late) I changed over to the 8mm copper ones. As far as
brake lines are concerned - you are best with the 'proper' brake line clips(see link at bottom of this post) - (I had already p-clipped mine
before I heard about these).
Before...rubber fuel lines.

After.....copper ones fitted.
