Identity of Guide

Photo links below show some guides I ripped off of an old spinning rod brought to me. Some were missing their ring. I'd like to replace em all with the same thing. Does anyone know what style (GLV...,LCT..., etc.) these guides are and where can I find em? I know they are Fuji double foot spinning rod guides and the sizes are stamped into the base of the foot, as is "Fuji". But, I can't find em anywhere on the net. All Fuji guide frames this size seem to be made of some type of round material. These are obviously flat and the ring frames seem welded to the base frame.
thanks guys.

I don't remember the nomenclature, but I have TONS of them. IF you want to send really clear photos AND sizes, I could probably hook you up.

Greg,
These are heavy saltwater boat guides.
If you have more than one or two off of the rod, it probably makes sense to strip off the rest of the guides and simply pick up a new set of comparable guides.
Take care
Roger

Greg -- Those guides have not been around in many, many years from Fuji. If you want a substitute that is very similar, the Pacific Bay Hialoy model BSHG is about as close as it comes.
