Does anyone know where I can get snap rings from?

In the process of removing the rear CV joint to clean it up I broke the snap ring in half, Toyota do not sell them, you have to buy the full CV joint, I can find anywhere that does them, getting very desperate now as the rebuild is at a halt without them.

Its for the rear outter drive shaft CV joint. Kind of looks like a keyring ring

Can anyone help?

They'll either be nearly free or £1,000,000

I tried those already, thats for the inboard CV joint £7 for two by the way :) I even tried modifying them to fit but to no avail :(

That springmasters place looks OK, but they have a minimum order of 60, so unless I can find 29 others interested in a group buy :D

still, might be cheaper than a whole CV joint.

OOOh they are 11p each, I might be able to afford all 60 on my own :D
