Find out what thread and size the adaptor is and see if an engineering firm can make it cheaper,if they can why not put a bulk order in and sell them on here  :y
If someone does this, then make the centre IIRC 12mm allen key hex. That way you have a better way of tightening it up.

Do the VX ones have a centre hex then ? . . . just thinking of how easy they will be to remove when I visit breakers Sunday morning.

Any ideas on how to remove  . . . 2 x 18mm nuts locked together ? ( if  18mm is correct  :-\

Hex allen key centre would be easy though if it has it  :-\ :-\

I got charged £14 by local vx dealer for junction pipe back in 2012 :) - screw on/spin off makes the job easier, and cheaper

Al, it's just a tube threaded along its length. If it has been loctited in you might struggle to remove it.
And if you PM me your address I'll post you the one I've just found in my stash of 'useful(one day if I'm lucky) bits'

It's M18x1.5 thread same as the filter/block and 48mm long.
