I very stupidly "mispaced" a removeable derailer stop when servicing my Planet X RT58 Carbon frame. I have contacted Planet X customer services and unfortunately because the model is discontinued they no longer stock spares for it (or any similar part that would fit). However it got me thinking I doubt these are bespoke parts made especially for Planet X, surely they're and off the shelf component used en-masse?

I've attached some photographs, It's a very longshot but does anybody have any ideas where a replacement can be sourced, I'm off to take one out of the frame for exact measurements....

I'd ask PX what the model number is of the frame and the factory they sourced them from and go direct. They might even exist on ebay as standard spares if you know the generic model number.

Maybe... i use Di2 but recall there were stops that came with the (not Planet X) frame. Will have a look when I get the chance.

They look like the cable stops that Saracen use on their 'Tenet' frame. Im.sure my friend's bike looks like that....
