I Just started laying out my hoodlining and listing wires and using the Ek manual i've found that i'm missing the centre one. No. 3 listing wire.
Does anyone know if it is the same shape and length as any of the others? beacuse i have a couple of sets and they all seem to be missing the third one.
What make's it even harder is that it's the one without any colour coding. Which would be fine however most of them are missing paint so not quite sure, I may actually have it.
Any help would be great.
Thanks
Dave

I would try a few and see which follows the roof contours the best and closest.

If by the "middle one" you mean the one that runs along the centre roof rib with the courtesy light, then there is no bow.
It is two pieces of HT wire about 60 cms long that fit into the "^" shaped tabs that protrude upwards from the centre rib.

Re: Hoodlining bows/listing wires
Where can i get them from?
Re: Hoodlining bows/listing wires
You might get away with ordinary wire, but it is usually too soft. Some spring wire or high tensile wire from a spring manufacturer, otherwise yell out in the Parts wanted section.
