Because I am an idiot, I lost the O ring and the plastic stopper/cap(to stop mud getting into the bottom valve) part of my brakes when draining them yesterday. Having turned the backroom upside down to no avail;
1. Can I do without them?
2. If not- where can i get spares.

Many thanks

Can do fine without, although you ccould possibly end up with grit in the lines when you try to bleed them.

You can buy them at CRC for a ridiculous price.
