I found mine at Tool Land.

Not sure if they have it there, but I'm sure any pure tool store would have them.
(not home depot, pep boys, etc)

Go to www.snapon.com They can ship overnight. Be prepared to pay through your nose.

Ebay always has a good selection too.... though that doesn't work when you need something quick. For the quick stuff, I'll just call the local shops and find out who the rep in my area is and give them a call. It's never a problem to meet up with their truck at one of the stops... I've also pulled into a shop when seeing the truck and bought stuff.

I found mine at a local parts store that caters more to the Euro cars, seems to carry more import stuff than domestic, guess because there are so many focused more on domestic. Forget the name, but its a pretty local chain.

Snap-on tools? Can't get 'em anywhere around here. I spent ages on the phone trying to find a local dealer, called 3 of them and never a one responded to me. Website or nothin....and even with a question on something on their website, I never heard back from 'em.

You can buy an affordable 4-pc. set (Lisle #60750) at Pep Boys.
