and from eBay with no problems.

At that price they ain't much dearer then the standard ones, fit and forget !

What I would do though is buy a replacement plastic mount that sits on top of one of the rear delta arms and holds one end of the flexi-pipe. Haven't managed to remove the old pipe without breaking one yet !

If you go on the goodridge website im sure they list the outlets where they are sold.
Mine had to be made up at goodridge and they had to wait for the parts to come in, about 10days. Well worth the wait thou. Cost about £70 so very reasonable.

I would also buy a few of the metal flexi-pipe retaining clips which also tend to break when removed. I think you'd have to buy these from the dealers but they're only a few quid.
