Any tips on where to seek those handy Color Coded Circuit Breaker Caps in continental Europe ?
Aircraftspruce.eu seem to have them.
Not continental, but in the UK, I got mine from https://www.lasaero.com

Ahh thanks, I had no idea they had a partner store in EU.
I thought they were a US only store.
Just ordered my stuff, thanks.
Amazing, the total order amounts to 9.34€ for each of those tiny CB Caps.

Since I live close to the border, I have a German postal address. I usually buy my oil (Total) from them, and the shipping rates are still ok. On the other hand, though the products and P/Ns are the same as ACS US, the stock is low on more items, and priced about 25% more.

Yep, a total rip-off for what is, after all, a simple plastic washer.
I have some on my next order list for ACS US, but even there, they list at $2.75/Piece… can’t help wonder what they buy them for, and a good reflection as to why aviation as a whole is expensive 
I suspect you could get these from a non-aviation source for 10% or less of this price. But you’d have to know what to look for.
I could machine them up on a lathe in minutes, once I had some plastic rods of the right colour.

So could I, but I sure value my time, even in minutes, at way more than the item’s quoted price
