Hi guys I really need your help I've just brought a pair of BeoLab 8000's and the aluminium work is in beautiful condition and tbh so are the frets but they are in black but they are to be wall mounted next to a BeoVision 11 with a white fret and I'm desperately searching for a new set of white frets for the BeoLab 8000 to have fitted but unfortunately Bang & Olufsen has stopped selling them. Does anyone know where I can find a set?
Thank you in advance

You can check with beoshop.co.uk. They seem to have in stock some of the previous generation products. Their website lists BeoLab 8000 frets in white in stock for £170.00. I don't know where you are located but they do ship overseas. You might want to give one of their locations an email and ask if they do have them.
Thank you Mark for getting back to me sorry I didn't reply sooner but don't seem to be getting notifications. BeoShop was actually one of the people I got in touch with and thought I'd give them a call to confirm the fact they did indeed have them in stock because I wanted them ready for when Bang & Olufsen of Nottingham came to wall mount them and connect them up to the television, so they could fit them at the same time but unfortunately they didn't and nobody could order them but Martyn from B&O Notts phoned around all his contacts and managed to find a pair from up north that the dealer had brought for his own personal set but never ended up using them and even went to pick them up for me (the level of service they provide is outstanding) on that note Matt from Lifestyle AV who I brought the speakers from was also amazing in the search for these frets and the speakers themselves are in outstanding condition, they was advertised with one tiny pin *** sized mark but I've looked up and down these speakers and can't find a single mark not even the one stated and was ordered at night and arrived in the morning.
Since setting these speakers up next to the BeoVision 11 I'm actually starting to lean towards keeping them Aluminium/Black and matches the aluminium and black glass frame and as all furniture in the Bedroom is also black gloss and silver. I'll decide when the white frets arrive on Tuesday but if I don't use them now I still intend on storing them... It's actually becoming a tradition of buying a collection of frets with each product because I can't make up my mind until I actually see in its surroundings.
