DDR2 Heat Spreader

Dont know where this goes but I will ask here anyways.
Where can you buy DDR2 Heat spreaders.
I recently got another 2GB of ram to match what I got in my sig.
But now G.skill uses another style/shape of sink so now all 4 sticks dont match perfectly.
All 4 sticks are the same color but the they just are not the same shape and its driving me F-ing nuts.
So I am wanting to buy 4 all new heat spreader/sinks so they will match in color and shape.
I would still like to keep with the neon green theme or blue color.
but remember I need 4.
If anyone knows please for the love of god help me out.
 
First, see if you can even remove your current heatspreaders. Sometimes they are stuck on there pretty damn good.

Second, heatspreaders are actually 'heat trappers'. RAM runs cooler with them off.

If you want to use actual RAM heatsinks, that is another story.
 
Yeah sorry I dont mean to be obsessive compolsive or anal but to me it looks damned stupid.
Its like having 4 of the same tires on your car but the front 2 hubcaps are different from the back 2.
See what I mean it looks damned stupid.
Anyways thanks alot guys for the help and those links.
I like the blue sinks from the first link above but they are all out of stock.
Guess I will have to wait till more come in.
the second link is total BS 10$ and 15$ for 1 freaken sink?
To bad there are no Neon green ones 🙁 as it looks I will have to go with blue.
