Default Uprated 2 pot rear calipers pins

I am currently re-furbing some 4 and 2 pots to fit to the Legacy WR Ltd when I pick it up. Many of you know the OE Subaru brake pad pins are low quality, corrode and even stop the pads moving. I managed to get some about 18 months ago and lost the link but luckily I found the supplier again. They have worked for 18 months without any problems on the current car, happy days.
So I have hunted down them down again. They are marine grade stainless steel clevis pins and bugger me if they are not cheaper than OE. I even got the spring loaded P clips to match.
1/4 inch diameter by 3 1/2 inch length 2 pot rears.
1/4 inch diameter by 4 inch 4 pot fronts.
1.6 x 25 (6-10 mm shank)

I'm in the process of making my own from 1/4in stainless bar for my 4pots as I gave up trying to find a suitable clevis pin, would also be interested in where you got them.

If you post a link to where you got them I'd also be interested in a set...
There may be enough interest for a group buy.
