They're not cheap. I had to go buy some from our local distributor during build this year, since we needed them ASAP and couldn't wait to purchase them online. Each insert was about $12.

The holder is probably $40-80 as well.
Ok, thanks. Good news is that our sponsors let us use their machine shop to build in so they just might have the holder or insert.

thanks, Vivek
