They are 47X only, which makes them difficult to find.

I bought a set from Bill Wilson several months ago for a factory correct 47x restoration here. If you aren't doing a similar restoration they are mostly useless and unnecessary.

By complete coincidence I listed a set on ebay today. I got hold of them at the start of my 1GE restoration then discovered they were 47X only. Have been gathering dust in the garage ever since!
