Zipp freehub pawls

Tech
1

I’ve just accidentally fired 2 of 3 freehub pawls across the floor of the shed. I’ve no confidence of ever finding them again. The wheels are the 2nd gen Zipp 303 firecrest rim brake .(possibly the 88/188 hub) Has anyone here a good source of Zipp spare parts? Is the local bike store the best bet or can these be purchased online?

Guessing from the freehub itself a new set of bearings will also be needed. Based in EU but could stretch to buying from UK if needed (hate having to pay the Brexit taxes)

Any help gratefully appreciated

Zipp don’t officially recommend you replacing the freehub bearings, so they’ll just sell you a freehub. At least in the uk, they didn’t stockspare pawls and springs either. From memory, the 188 freehub uses the same size bearing as the front hub.

Probably worth speaking to your local dealer, they might be able to blag you some spare pawls from the sram tech department, but its unlikely. If you need new pawls and new bearings anyway, a complete freehub might save you some faff.
