Yeah, pleased that's sorted...

Tbh I didn't set out looking for them as obviously I have other priorities... but they were mega cheap. I'm not too sure yet, will stick them on and see what I think.

DIY vented battery:



And in place:



Lastly I sanded down and polished up my sorry looking exhaust tip:
