carbon brushes - Parkside (Lidl) Angle Grinder

    HI
    Can anyone tell me where I can buy carbon brushes for my Parkside (Lidl) Angle Grinder in Dublin? I want to walk in and get on the spot, not buy online and pay postage.
    It seems t me either that things like this are just not available at all in Ireland (I find this hard to believe), or Irish companies just can't be bothered making their products available on the internet. I say this because a search in Google only gave me one UK option to buy these, for the grinder I have, although I bought it in Rathfarnham Dublin.
    Now I find it hard to believe that they are not available in a city with over one million inhabitants?

    If anyone knows where I can buy them, I would be very grateful, and I'll make a point of asking the supplier to advertise them online (and increase their business) for Irish buyers.

    Cheers,

    Tony Dublin

    I doubt you'll find the exact brushes but should get something similar. Take the old ones out and go to anywhere that repairs appliances/power tools. The guys in the power tool hub (I think they are in chadwicks) on the naas road should sort you out if near Dublin. I'd try mcquillans too.

    Why don't you buy them in Lidi. O yea , they don't sell parts like that , but we expect other tool suppliers to stock them. What happens when all we have left is aldie ,Lidi and other crap stores like woodies ect?.

    Why bother posting if you can't help the op?
    If the prices in Lidl/Aldi/B&Q etc. bother you so much open a thread about it and get a discussion going.
