Where can i get this part for my STi pink injectors?

Hey guys, just got a vf34 kit, and im trying to get all my stuff ready for the install.

I think i need these black rings. They didnt come on my injectors.

Where can i get them for cheap? and what are they called? Dont want to get ripped off by a dealership.

You can reuse your stock ones. Make sure you don't tear them.

Of course its good to buy new. You can always check if they are good if not stop by your local hardware store and pick up some new o rings.

if you go that route you want to make sure if you pick up some at a hardware shop they are ok for fuel.

i say just go to the dealers and get new. worst you want to happen is get everything on and go get a tune to find out that in the end one of your fuel injectors was jacked up. better to be safe then sorry.. like they say if you want to save money do it correct the first time.

Do not reuse your old parts unless you want to redo the job for a second time.

I would not reuse them. You will be running the risk of perhaps having a leak. IMO not worth the risk. time is money.

then again if oyu cant afford to spend 6 dollars now or a total of 24 dollars from the dealer then expect to pay more in the future when your injectors fail.

does anyone know the purpose of those pieces? If they are lower cushion rings, im assuming they are just in place to keep the injector tip from moving too much? and they're not really used as a seal? of course im probably wrong.
