During an episode of hamfistedness I appear to have broken the little triangular grommit that pulls the straddle wire on my rear canti brake upwards.
The internet seems to sell a few cheapy Raleigh versions that just hook under the straddle wire, but this one was a posher looking Tektro thing that held it with a couple of grub screws. I can only find one like that on a US site; surely somebody here must do them? Would a cheap one do? Or do I just have to buy a whole new brake?

and clarks do a purty one
The more basic looking one will work just fine
But for a flash one try a lbs that does some cx bikes
Or sells anything dmr as they distribute tekto also
Looks similar to the one in the OP.
That looks like it, Grum. So do I go for cheap and functional, or pricier, pimpier and matching the remaining one? Hmmm...
Ta all...
Had a couple of old silver tektro ones in my spares box for years
