My Apple dealer sells us the individual plugs. They're quite expensive
though - about 3 quid each! Compared to the 20-odd quid for a cable
though they're cheap. Ask your Apple Centre if they will sell you a plug.
If you can't get one from them, I can see if I can get you one.
If anyone has a cheaper alternative supplier (of good quality plugs) then
I would like to know too!
