You cannot find them in regular stores or Vestax.
I replaced mine with These;

Nice and smoother feel than the originals!
Since the beginning that I had the black VCI,
I was not completly satisfied with the hardware layout, in combination
with my "style" of playing.(3 decks):confused:
When Ean made his "SE" I upgraded mine to firmware 1.3 and loved the possibilities...
and welcome on DJTT!

thank guys - yes i opened the unit but kindof assumed that getting inside the faders was not possible - i think thats where the liquid has done the damage…
i may have another go to see if i can access though - nothing to loose and great to hear i can replace them with other non vestx parts.
cheers!
