There was a bloke selling wiper bush refurb. kits on both Epay and the FB/EK enthusiasts page a couple of years back - they were about $20 a set from memory
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

This listing is sold out but there's a phone number in the link that might be worth a try?

I called the guy from the above ebay listing and he's willing to make more of those wiper bush kits... If anyone is interested he'll do a bulk order at a reduced price.
