Foam inserts for tow-bar - cheapest vendor?

[Pie]

Where is the cheapest place to get the foam inserts you need when fitting the Westfalia detachable tow bar.
Just Kampers do them but it's £38 for the 2 needed !!!! Thought that was a bit pricey.
Cheers

Well I emailed my local dealer parts department for a price but have not had any response. They may still be shut due to covid19.
Where's the best place to order VW parts online ?

I need these but may make something, does anyone know how thick the foam is on the top?

I have a spare westfalia swan neck towbar here

It has two polystyrene spacers on it, shaped to go over the rear edge.

It's about 1.8cm thick on the top.

And 33cm long.

Perfect, thanks. Why is it spare?

I replaced it with a Brinks removeable one

@Pie TPS Carlisle is still open, could be worth a try. I picked up some rear lights from there a few weeks ago.
