Pelican backordered on LN SPOFA... where to buy?

As the title says, Pelican is 4 weeks backordered on the spin on oil filter adapter from LN. LN shows the part but not in their online store. Suggestions on where else to get one as well as a low temp thermostat?

I realized that maybe I should have posed this question differently...

I really like Pelican a lot, and especially the great selection which makes it easy to shop in one place. However, lets suppose they didn't have a part I was looking for, where else would I check? Someone must have an opinion... thanks.

Looks like ********************************************.com has them in stock. They ship internationally too so you're in luck.

EDIT: link: http://www.********************************************.com/Porsche-Billet-Full-flow-Spin-on-Oil-Filter-Adapter-Kit-Boxster-996-Parts-PN-R10601.html

******************************************** is an alternative for Pelican, but you end up paying more for the parts. Pelican is the best IMO because of the prices, the easy to use website and the great free resources.

I know you aren't asking, but personally I would stick with the stock filter insert. Reason being is that it is a lot easier to cut apart and inspect for metal than the spin on metal cannister filter.
