There is a link to my shop in my sig, but I sell three different sizes. I'm not sure if you mean you want to buy the needles to make yourself, or to get them already cut. Anyway, the tool listed in my shop has an image listing needle sizes and pictures of them side by side for comparison if that helps. The original size needle is actually an embroidery needle size 9 I think.

Instead of using an actual tool I often use a doll needle. They are about 5 inches long.  With this method I usually use the knot method. I stick the eye of the needle through the plug hole so it pops out where the neck is, thread the end of the plug through the eye and pull it back through till it's tight against the knot/glue/ or loop.

Or a big eye beading needle. (sometimes too fragile since they are made for beads and if your plug is too big they are might break at the end when you try to pull it through)
