24V Plenum O-Rings Very Cheap!

I have found another source of plenum o-rings other than ford.
ford's price is £5.75 for a pair.
I could do them for £1.50 inc uk delivery for a pair. Paypal surcharge would apply or cheque...
I have to buy a whole load of them in one go... 25 sets..
So does anybody want some to make this a goer...
It's a good idea to have a coupl of set on hand 
if I can get buyers for 15 sets I will go ahead.
Anyone?

I will order them up and let you two both know.. I will take the risk that others will need them and I won't be lumbered with piles of them.

Yeah guess so..
I am looking at getting the plenum gaskets made as well, could be a lot cheaper than buying the whole lot from ford...

Took me about an hour start to finish including replacing the fuel presure reg and the dodgy vac hoses..
It's dead easy! My old o-rings were as brittle as a Scorpio rear bumper!! No flex at all just broke up..
Use a little grease on them to ease the plenum back on.
