I ordered some new ones from Paddock for my td5 but they are too long. See pic

What is the correct size and how much are they likely to be from main dealers?

I have no idea but just thought that there may be a difference between facelift and non-facelift model nipples???? If so you may have bought the wrong ones cause Paddocks seem to be pretty good generally

About prices from a main dealer: LOTS

They'll charge an arm and a leg. I'd say its a last resort lol

They were only 36p from paddocks but I have seen some places selling them for £4. If I knew the size I might be able to source some elsewhere.

IMO they've sent you wrong ones cos the good ones look like your original see here Your Search Results > , they seem more like for D1 cos those seem longer http://www.brit-car.co.uk/product.php/98181/3647/brake_bleed_screw_in_caliper_metric but did you try it and doesnt fit? cos if you watch all the pictures there are differencies between them according to the manufacturers too

Thanks thats a great link as it gives me the part number. It seems they are around £2.59 from main dealers. I will order some today.
