standoff / spacer for rgb (4-lead) led?

[intellijel]

I can't seem to find anywhere that sells spacers for my rgb leds which have 4-leads.

The best I could find is a 3 lead one.

Any ideas? I guess I might have to go for the tube solution.

I'm not sure what you mean :(

here is an example:

Just something to raise my led from the pcb.

Ahhh so this would be the exact part you want right? http://www.richco-inc.com/group_details.asp?seccode=500&grpcode=L1090

I'll poke around my local stores and let you know if I get a hit... I assume you already tried mouser, digikey and farnell? They always seem to have one of everything...

That cross pattern would be bad for the rgb led (hard to spread out the leads like that). I need something like this:

I already checked digikey mouser and did the google thing. Most of them don't even stock rgb leds to begin with...not sure why this would still be considered such a specialty item that you need to buy it from ebay or led stores.
