Hey all,

Does anyone know where to get some blanking caps from? I need to blank off the Air Pump holes in the airbox, so bigger ones for that.

And also a few of the blanking plugs for the nipples on the UIM, so the smallers one for that?

I can\'t seem to find a source for them!

Cheers,
Mark

If you mean the nipples on the UIM like the one you use for the boost pipe, you could always get a bit of standard aquarium piping, melt one end of it to seal it then stick it over the nipple.

Yeah, they\'re the ones! I was thinking I could melt something together but thought that you must be able to get something off the shelf for cheap enough? But I guess either way would be fine and it\'s not like they\'re visible...

For the air box ones I used some rubber table leg ends that I found at B&Q. They fit perfectly.

I\'ve asked this question before but never found any. Still looking mind!

Good find... A group buy may be the only way by the looks of things, with a 1000 per bag it\'ll be 1 or 2 more than I think I\'ll need ;)

The silicon/rubber bungs that are supplied with PC water cooling systems seem to work quite well - they tolerate the heat at least - but the clips are not much cop
 
For the larger ones - rubber corks from the wine shop ;)
 
Found this after a little google:
