I'm trying to source a supply of the plastic chrome inserts that press into &
blank off the top of an Allen head bolt. Same as is fitted to many bikes on
handlebar risers etc.

I can find them from motorcycle parts & accessory retailers but they seem to
want 50p - �2 each for them !

I can find them in any colour other than a chrome finish for 0.001p each.

I can get some custom made with a minimum order of 20 000.

I'm after qu 200 - 2000

Someone, somewhere uses these in their 1000's, furniture, cabinets etc & knows
where a box can be had for less than the cost of a fully dressed Goldwing.

Please help, you are my only hope.

where I would start.

Been there & asked the questions. These are tubular end caps & available from
1000's of places, they don't do what I'm looking for in a chrome finish.
