Where can I get a fuel filler nozzle?

By Tomorrow?!

It seems that they've discontinued the plastic fuel neck that goes from the tank to the rubber bit on the later tanks. I've got an '81 2 litre but trying to get a new fuel tank and JK suggest a later one but need to change nozzle. Even VW can't get me one!

Any suggestions greatly received. We're booked to go to France in it at the weekend.
Thanks

I take it that means noone else knows either.

Thanks anyway

Tried Brickwerks? See website, there`s some fuel tank fittings listed on there.

You could give CJ at syncrospares a shout, he might have one.

Thanks for all your suggestions.
I had checked most of those places before posting will keep syncrospares details to add to useful list though.
Finally found one at volks heaven today.
Now I'm just hoping that replacing that solves the problem. Got a new fuel tank going in too.
