I bought front t-bars (hollow 21mm, Sander Engineering) from Rennsport Systems, one of the Dorki sponsors.

Thom:

If you want Weltmeister (solid) 23mm and 30mm (I think they measured out at 31) I'll sell you mine. (not really recommended for street). Available to any other Dorki as well. Will post in the for sale area soon.

Thom, you have a Euro 915, right? I don't think my stock G50 t-bars will fit your car, but you can have them if you want them. They're probably good for baton-twirling practice.

I would contact Smart Racing Products. Very well engineered and reasonably priced products. They have an online catalogue

If you want them locally, OG Racing stocks them.

I don't know how much you want to spend, but if you are interested in hollow t-bars, elephant racing has them.
