Rod Holders

I know this has been done before but I'm b*****d if I can find the thread. I'm after a couple of good quality stainless rod holders to fit onto 2" tube. All the ones I can find are to fit 1-1.5" I know someone had some off Ebay but I can't find 'em. Any help appreciated.

If you mail this ebay seller, from southampton. He will make at what ever size you require. He often has different sizes listed, but as you say only 1" at the moment
Top quality too

Sure but that's going to add a bit to you cost isn't it? Perhaps you should try to contact the Amazon seller and see if they can ship them to over there?

If that's a no go I'm happy to help out. I'll get some pictures posted when I have them in hand. See if they are as cool as they look.
