Eyepiece plastic covers

[huggiebear]

Hi all

Any idea wherei can get the plastic covers that go on the bottom of the eyepiece. I have managed to lose a couple and also want one for the webcam to heep the dust out. Done a search on a well known auction site and FLO but can't seem to find what i'm after.

Cheers

Astrospares in USA are quite good for more obscure caps, but you need to watch how much you spend. I just went over the HMRC limit and got slap with a £14 Custom, VAT and Royal Mail handling charge

I'm sure these would do the trick as well and a fair bit cheaper - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/32mm-Diameter-Black-Soft-Plastic-Floor-Protective-Caps-Covers-5pcs-/390514542125?pt=UK_Home_Garden_LivingRoom_Bookcases&hash=item5aec7b062d
