Went to take my Sutro lites out the case last night to give them a good clean, and noticed one of the temples/arms were missing after my ride in the Cradle on Saturday. Puzzled to how this happened and where the missing temple/arm is, searched my bag, the car,etc so my only guess where I parked outside Bidon. I am now looking for a replacement, anyone know if this is available locally?

Maybe try Luxottica, they were the last Distributor for Oakley in the country. 

They still are the official Importer and Distributor.

Any cycleshop dealing with them will be able to get if they have stock

I thought Oculux was the importer, as they supply product via Takealot.

Could be, for all we know its like Motorex or Maxxis. Split amongst a few different distros in different markets

Nope.  
Either Oculux buys from Luxottica or they import "grey"
Not sure.

So none of the local retailers can source arms for Oakley Sutro Lites - apparently Oakley don’t actually produce spare arms   

however last weekend, I parked in similar place in the cradle and there on the ground was the missing piece of my glasses! I guess I can take comfort in the sunnies surviving the elements
