Anyone know a source (or alternative) of Spring brake shoe return springs UKC1255?

I may have some used ones if you are talking about the long and short that connect the two shoes together, but these are readily available new as part of a Girling shoe fitting kit...

I was unsure if they were different from car to car. I have a set of the longer bottom type of spring but not the shorter top one. I will have a look at some shoe fitting kits, I dare say we might even have some at work and compare them.
