Silicone stock TMIC couplers? Which to buy?

Can anyone give me a bit of guidance as to where and which silicone couplers to buy for my stock top mount IC?

Oh, and please dont give me the "why" or "just use stock rubber" response.

Well since you haven't told us why you want these it's a legitimate response. If you're doing this just for looks then just say so. There's nothing wrong with tasteful engine dress-up. But if you think you need silicone couplers, or think they'll be more reliable, you're wrong. If you're running so much boost that the stock couplers aren't good enough, you shouldn't be using the stock intercooler at all.
