No more master cylinders rebuild kits?

Just phoned Brakes International to get a master cylinder rebuild kit for the black tubular type:

Sierra Master Cylinders
Sierra Master Cylinders




Brakes Int don't do them anymore as Girling have stopped making them.

None of my other factors have one. Anyone know of anywhere still doing them or have a spare kit themselves?

That's what comes of leaving it as they had them June last year!

Doh!

Cheers,
James

LSUK will sell me a whole new master cylinder for £70+vat.

NSDev's 'chappie' hasn't got them. Will get back to me if he can find them.

Cheers anyway lads.

Consider fitting a Golf cylinder from some of the VW suppliers -- I bought mine for 19 quid but it came without the resevoir.
