Air filters gfe1005 type

GFE 1005 style air filters aren't as easy to come by as they used to be. None of the motor factors that i go to can supply them any more. Now, i know that Rimmer Bros do them as they are used on Dolomites but they are 12 quid plus p&p. They do crop up on ebay, again not cheap anymore (except TC ones which seem both plentiful and cheap) most are well over a tenner, plus postage. One has just been listed: £14.99.
Now being down to my last nos Unipart one, i thought i'd try to find a supplier and came across In-line Filters:

Ok,ok shipping is 6.95 per order, but the filters are cheap £4.73 plus vat. I bought 5 filters for a grand total of £36 inc vat and postage, just over £7 each delivered. Obviously a bigger order would be better value as the postage stays the same.
The filters are very similar to the Fram CA646 being orange rubber and yellow filter paper.
