Have tried phoning around my local motor factors, one couldn't get any till Monday, the other said they were the same as RV8 ones only with heat shields... Racing Green were expecting some this afternoon but didn't get them in time to send them out for me tomorrow.

Anyone else have any ideas where I could get some in Kent - M2 - M20 - M23/25 area?! Please, pretty please.

For a 4.2 btw.

Not originals but replacements can be had from Tim at ACT, He's based M23/M25 way if you need them in a hurry. http://www.actproducts.co.uk/ignition.php

Haha, how annoying. That would be about a 45 minute journey each way, and its about 20 minutes from where my girlfriend lives - a journey I'll be doing again Saturday night... Yes, I could pick them up on the way, but want to take the Cerb to the girlfriends, but can't with the condition of the current leads! frown

But thanks, will call them Plan B, any other motor factors or somewhere that people know might have stock? :S

Did you speak to Tim, he's actually quite near the Kent/Sussex/Surrey border east of the A22 confused

Not yet, noticed they he is in East Grinstead though, where as I'm central North Kent. Wouldn't want to make the journey through towns tomorrow morning, and motorways would be easily 45 minute there, then back again.

OK best of luck, just thought you were desperate for a set now that's all.

Hallfords do leads that you actually make up yourselves.
Different ends etc.

Might be worth a try?

Yea, thought about that, but its a few bit of faffing around and think it might be relatively expensive. Ok, so now I'm just being picky I know!

Anyway, just phoned ACT and Tim has agreed that I can collect some tonight. Have something to drop off in Tunbridge Wells, so going to try and kill two birds with one stone. Very helpful Tim was too! biggrin
