Duraseal terminals

Anybody any idea where I can buy small quantities of Duraseal or equivalent ring and spade terminals?
The only places I can see are places like RSwww and they have minimum quanties of 100 or more, I only need a dozen or more of each kind.
I had enough to do most of the wiring and just need a dozen or s of each to finish off, to buy them at the quantities RS want would mean spending around £100 for 24 crimps!

what about your local auto shop, can they help, or even go in to a small garage and ask for a few

Cheers Nasher, they had what I needed.
I had tried the local factors etc and when asked just got blank looks, even the two local chandlers/marinas didn't have them.
A web search didn't bring up anything bar RS and farnell who had minimum order quantities.

That's because you were looking for a specific brand - Wurth supply crimp heatshrink connectors of good quality in small boxes.
