Abstract: Employing techniques recently developed in the context of the Fokker--Planck approach to electron transport in disordered systems we calculate the conductance length correlation function $<deltag(L)deltag(L+DeltaL)>$ for quasi 1d wires. Our result is valid for arbitrary lengths L and $DeltaL$. In the metallic limit the correlation function is given by a squared Lorentzian. In the localized regime it decays exponentially in both L and $DeltaL$. The correlation length is proportional to L in the metallic regime and saturates at a value approximately given by the localization length $xi$ as $Lggxi$.
