Rod End / Ball joints

I'm looking for a pair of 6mm Rod Ends like this one ..... only not for £15 each!

eBay Item

Any ideas guys?

Can you not use spherical bearings? Rose Joints? Could get 2 for that price.

I particularly like these enclosed versions as they are on my throttle pedal and don't have any sticky out bits to catch on my shoes. I think I got them from Ford long ago but can't remember exactly where.

Thanks for the offer but I've tried M8 and they are a bit too chunky

Davie - good call and definitely on my list for the future
