FB fit and are are sometimes preferred if your not fussy about originality. I have a set on mine.

FB/EK ones can be made to fit, but it's not a straight swap. You need to adjust the locations of the tabs on the seat that they screw into.

As mentioned here (http://www.fefcholden.org.au/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=repro;action=display;num=1158649748), RS are working on a new repro of the FE/FC type.

I thought the FB ones were metal? I'd prefer original but cant wait for RARES to get going.

Correct, FB/EK are metal. Harrisons have a repro unit, but unless it was really urgent I'd be waiting to see how the Rares ones turn out. You might get lucky and find someone with a decent set of original ones for sale, but they're not real robust and even NOS ones don't seem to last once fitted. NOS or used, it's still 50 year old plastic.
