My L34 has had a replacement front panel fitted at some stage of it's life but whoever fitted it was too lazy to refit the chrome T O R A N A letters . They were held in place by plastic push in plugs that gripped the 2 pins on the back of the letters . The pins are only 2mm thick and rares here in NZ can't supply anything , can anybody help me with sourcing something to fit ?

See pictures. Rare spares were looking at getting them re manufactured in 2015
Not sure if they sell them yet.
Hopefully the pictures come through okay.

Thanks for your reply , l couldn't find anything like the sleeves in your picture .....main RS dealer in Christchurch said they weren't being made . Local RS dealer had some very hard plastic sleeves that were 4mm dia , so l used those and then passed a drill through them so the 2mm pins on the back of the letters would fit .
