As far as I know, these are a Bosch Shop only item.

You may be money ahead to replace your own nozzles, then take the
injector assemblies to your local Bosch shop to set the break pressures.

To recap...

<snip> 
The shims are available in sizes from 1.0mm-1.95mm.  Changes of .05mm
will increase breaking pressure by about 5bar.
Also of note - I found that the nozzles for the ME engine are the same
as the ones used in the ME/1V engine.  This is bizarre, as there are two
different part numbers (I have emailed Bosch to ask why - no response),
and everyone sells them at 3x the cost of the NA nozzles. 
 
Regards,
  Steve
