O rings for AC condenser

Looking to find a source for the O rings that go on the AC condenser. Any suggestions is there an aftermarket source or is the dealer the only option?

Just pick up any orings at a local store that are the right size.

At my dealership we never order genuine Audi/VW orings. We use the generic metric orings we have in stock. Never had any problems. Just make sure to coat the orings with some pag oil when installing.
