In short:
1. They are frequently lost unless you secure them by some means. 2. Many have lost them. 3. They are, therefore, rarer than rocking horse poo. 4. Hence, they sell (IF available) for astronomic amounts. There are threads on here about them and, for instance, whether they could be 3D printed. Good luck with the purchase but it is probably one of the most hard to get items for the D2. Sorry.

Plan B?
Isn't this a good candidate for 3D printing?

e.g. Maplin sell a 3D printer for £375, but is limited to a maximum size of 200 x 200 x 200mm, and I think the grilles are longer than that.

Wouldn't it be great to have all grilles CNC milled out of block of aluminium?

Thanks a lot for the info guys, much appreciated. I didn't know they would be so rare / expensive! I'm not in a hurry so will keep my eyes peeled hopefully for something a bit more reasonable than I can currently find. And also make sure the replacement is properly fixed with no escape!
I know someone with a 3D printer so will ask them what they think too. |

Grilles
There was a pair floating about on a well known internet auction site in the last week or so - I've bought a few items off the seller, no issues at all with the transactions.
