Don't know the exact sizes, but Halfords sell a bag of assorted jubilee's for about a fiver, IIRC.  The Forge set is over £10! :lipsrsealed:

ps These might do the job.  The biggest one you need is probably about 65mm??:-

You've gone the other end of the spectrum! :D  A bit overkill for the TIP!

Just measure the outlets on your TIP & go to local motor factors. ;)  Or take TIP to shop! :)
