I've found a neat little mini compressor and I'm planning on getting some rat tails from Fanum but I haven't been able to find a tyre needle sold separately anywhere. Just wondered if anyone might have a spare lying around from an old kit that they no longer need, which would save me buying an entire kit for a single part.

Thanks,

Justin.
 
I searched ebay for tyre needles, guess I was using the wrong term, thanks for that. Also just found this, for not much more and the handles will go into a tool roll more easily.

Had been thinking of just one of the metal combination rasp and needle that doesn't take up much space, but think this kit might be a better option for now.

Got the PM and will send it as above. Yes it is a folding one which I have used once, compared to the one im sending you its fantastic, its the one the AA use, from slimbo of this parish I think, hes an AA man (and a half) sorry mate :hide The kits about £22-25 and I was so impressed I bought 2 one for a mate.





PS should also say that the kit comes with enough for 25 repairs
