Oooh that would be very good. I have shut my PC down so haven't got the means to go digging in my stuff.

Does it have the sponge backing or the woven backing?
(Both were used on FRP)

Two thinness 3.5mm and 4.5mm so I'm not sure, I had a lead some time back, a chap had 15 meters in Essex, as I recall he quoted the same number as was on the owner web site and it also had the same batch number on the back as was on a section that I had from Alan at puma build 998844. I made him a couple of offers on eBay, the final time I emailed back he'd sold the lot, but he did tell me where it had come from, and I found where they had it from so I was going to try an order 500mm to see if it's ok, unfortunately is about £75 with the postage, so I am just trying to go back over what I had been informed just incase it a duff lead.

The original maker of it has no more left sold the last bits a few years back now.
If this is genuine stuff it must have been bought and stashed years ago.

my bits don't have a code, I have foam backed and a bit of woven back

Mines just woven back - shame, as I think the seat bases were foam backed

Thanks for the offer but the number on the back is usually the production batch number, and does not resemble the colour/weave code, still looking and trying to access the Owners club, been trying to find out what's going on the club web site for some time now but keep drawing a blank, looks as if 15 years of Frp history and information has been dumped, so much for paying my membership.

There are a few problems at the moment I don't have an eta of a fix.
It is not dumped just had not been fixed yet.
