Ignition wire SEPARATORS--need source

I will be upgrading to Magnecore 8.5mm wires soon. Instead of drilling out old wire separators to accomodate the thicker diameter Magnecores, anyone know of a source for new separators?

thanks

I actually too the rubber ones that came with the stock wires and cut it with a razor blade to slip the old ones out and the new ones in.

Cost $0 and they fit back into the holes on the shroud.

Just as easy to drill out the OEM separators and they bolt right back into position.

How are the OEM separators attached to the stock wires? Does one need to remove the wires off the car, slip off the caps on end of wires then slip off separator?

Aren't the separators from SC rubber (therefore slice-able with razor blade), compared to harder plastic of 3.2 Carrera?

thanks
