I looked into this about two years ago and came across another option, namely the jets used in a similar aged A6. The part numbers are 4Z7955101 (passenger side) and 4Z7955102 (driver side). The relevant A8 part numbers are 4D0955989A (passenger side) and 4D0955990A (driver side). All of them are NLA, but you can get ones from the likes of AliExpress.

Here's one on AliExpress similar to the ones I bought for both left and right jets for under £7.00 (just select 'Pair' from options):

Audi Tradition have the jets for under 24 Euro each and the caps (4D0955269 passenger side and 4D0955270 driver side) for under 30 Euro each, but you need to find a way to get them delivered to the UK.

EDIT: Forgot to say, but you can replace the jets in situ.
