Why would you want to do that?

Just to answer your question though.

All you have to do is go to an autoparts store and ask to see their large o-ring kit. Then proceed to try them out till you find the right fit. You will have to take the caps out and probably leave them out though.

O-rings are the easiest. Go the the hardware store and try out the o-rings until you get the right size. Then get 2 or 4 of them. No need to buy a whole o-ring kit. Just saying.
