Those look a lot like 356/912 shims, mostly because they are.

I can get some thicknesses of T4 shims, but they're OE and will be list price.

I can probably pull some used ones from engines.
They would be less than the $15 each for new ones. Do you know what thicknesses you need? You need three shims that get you in the end play spec.

I just finished setting my end play and have a couple left over..

1 new 36mm, and 2 good used 30mm.

PM me if these sizes are something you need.
