Default Lowest saddle packs

My home made F1 car (http://www.oople.com/forums/showthread.php?t=42235) needs some nice low saddle-packs to fit under the side shocks. Ideally they need to be 19mm or lower to fit in without modifying the car, although I may be able to raise the shocks a touch.

What are the lowest (i.e. least tall) saddle packs available? Capacity doesn't really matter, nor do they need to be BRCA legal, they just need to be low.

The only ones I've found so far are soft cased which isn't ideal.

1s or 2s ?

will 12th 1s fit along the chassis and then use a jump lead to make 2s

there are some saddles on the BRCA list if you want 1s

I was ideally after 2s saddle to avoid a booster. I think two 1/12th packs might fit (might be a bit of a squeeze for the radio gear), will have a measure up later.

if you arent worried about brca legal then get the softcase packs, it is very easy to make your own hard protective case, all you need is a block of wood cut to size, a bit of carbon matting and some resin and off you go.
