The cost of moulding is in the tooling which is very expensive. Try John Browse for used or look at 3D printing if you have to get them made.

I'll speak to them first, just in case they quote silly prices - never used them personally before, but know someone who has and he said they were reasonable with setup costs, so fingers crossed!

Well if he's selling the plugs then he's got the wrong part number AND photo, because IMHO they sure don't look like the plugs in Gus's photo.

Hi Compo
my eyes are getting bad or the guy in the US is selling ugly copies! At first sight they look like indicator mounting rubbers.
Those on your picture are the real stuff!
Cheers

Well I've looked into getting a batch of these made up by a local moulding firm and it looks like they will work out at about £4-5 each.
If I could shift hundreds of them obviously the price would come down, but the tooling costs are the major component.
So, if anyone is interested let me know.
I'm going to go ahead and get some made, any that I don't sell through forums etc. I'll out on evilbay for an extortionate profit
Regards,
John
