A full new set came with my 8 when I purchased it as a project - looking at the receipts these came from Jowett Car Spares albeit several years ago - I would be surprised if they cannot help.

Thanks Chris - I phoned them continuously last evening - about 25 times but they were always engaged. Tried again at midnight, when I would have expected it to ring out, but they were still engaged so perhaps they have an issue with their phone ?. Will try again next Monday.
