curse my spelling!

I tried to order them from Farenll last night

They cancelled my order because Farnell has to ship them in from the US. I'd need to make an order of at least £20 + £15 shipping just to get 5 end caps worth £2 and I don't have a need for anything else right now to make a £35 order.

I might get some american to try and they for me and then just post them to the UK.

I wouldn't worry.
I found that site too but it's minus one size of cap I need.

cheers for the help though!

I'd seen them on a few things before. there are UK manufactures of very similar things. I left some emails but since I want so few nobody is getting back to me.

Sadly a not untypical experience with UK manufactuters.
