OT: where can I get fittings for water jackets?

I got hold of two water coolers for graphics cards - aquagrafx 7800 cooler. But the web site for the company is in German and even then I can't find the parts for the fittings (small metal pipes that screws into the cooler that you attach the hoses to). The threads are in metric so the local USA hardware store does not carry metric threaded fittings.

2nd question: Will a water jacket like this made for the graphic cards of the type 7800 GTX work on other graphic cards? Or am I better off just getting a new vid card and skip water cooling the vid cards?

Any large autoparts store will have the fittings you require.
