try smc, festo, or just look for a pneumatics dealer in your area.

I just got an arb pressure switch for $33
The pressure relief valve was about $20 and a non return valve $5.20, both from the local truck parts/bearing place. Make sure you put something better than ordinary air hose on compressor as it gets very hot.
I used hydrulic hose & fittings and it was the dearest part.

there is a really good compressor shop that sells all the parts mentioned in victoria street about 1k east of arb city/richmond, smack in the middle of the asian food area on the south side of the street.
very helpful with stuff and he let me try parts for size in my car.
