They were discussed in detail on here. A seller on eBay had a load of old stock cambelt kits for £20 but were missing one pulley

So, buying two of them at £40 gives you a full , new kit.

I bought a few and pretty sure I have a couple left. I've everything here needed to change your belt kit plus an aux belt and idler :y

I need to check when I last did TBE's.

Anyone know of a good supplier, as I probably need to get one in stock ready.
