Bialetti Moka Pot Spares?

I'm going bonkers trying to find a replacement seal/ring for my 2-cup Bialetti moka pot. Tried the links in the stickies, eBay, etc. but everyone seems to have replacement for 1-cup or 3-cup, and there appears to be a difference from the 2 to 3 cup. Would like to get it in Ireland but will order from anywhere that ships here. Any thoughts? Cheers!

Dig out a measuring tape and check what diameter you need.

Thanx, appears I have a 55mm (outside diameter). 2-cup pot doesn't appear to be sold outside of Italy. Will keep looking...

Is the above the size you need? Looks like it's on a few american sites but
you'll most likely have to mail them and see whether they'll ship here.
After postage it might be cheaper replacing the pot.

Is yours a mukka or brikka version?

Mine is the Moka Express, the more original looking one. Actually, will check the American sites as my brother-in-law is visiting me here in 2 months, so I could have it shipped to him in the States and he could bring it over. Thanks a mill for the direction!
