Hi Lawrence,

Coincidentally I've had three of mine stolen.

The superseeded part is DYB 100121 and Rimmer has them for £5.04 each or Austin Garages are offering five for £10.95. These look slightly larger than my original 1999 part.

As a temporary measure, black insulating tape works well. Mine has been on for 3 years as I cannot find original replacements, and didn't want water ingress. Hardly noticeable.

Think this alternative part number is for the V8 plug. Does the job exactly the same but it doesn't sit quite so flush on the rail - 12 months back I bought 5 for about £10 off e-bay

Hi Lawrence.
Replace them all with rubber grommets from Halfords.
