Grolls,
I presume you are looking for the ones that run underneath the floor of the car to the engine bay? If so, I got mine in copper (or could of had copper nickel) from www.automec.co.uk. I had mine cut to my length and it had the rib on the ends done. Can't remember the dia. off the top of my head....
Hope that helps
Ian

The copper/nickel mix is apparently more future proof. I read that the pure copper eventually hardens? and can go funny at joints. However having seen first hand 90yr old copper work that still is fine I don't believe it, and the copper is easier to work 
I have an automec former, the vice mount job, only did a couple joints with it which turned out crap and was hard work but it seems a nice bit of kit and I reckon time you did it all yourself you'd have paid for the tool.
