Does anyone make reproductions of the oval plastic plugs for the inner longs?

TIA

They are a tar mat, not plastic

AHA! so I can just get a little spice of dynamite or sumfin and trim it?

Yep, and Bob's your uncle!

Cut one out of a shingle? Not really a recommendation, but when I pulled mine off I remember thinking, man, that's just like a piece of shingle.

Shoot me a pic. We can mass produce these pretty inexpensively.

Mark,

I have one. I will drop it by your shop. I could use a few sets myself.

If I could make a suggestion/recommendation on these. I believe they are 3MM thick but the actual inset in the long is about 5MM deep. If you could find the correct thickness of material that would be great. That way the surface of the plug is level with the outer surface of the long.

Great!
This place is awesome BTW

Thanks that would be great, I know the part now. Had to think about it. Pretty sure we can do something that will be equivalent to OEM.

I made some of these, not sure but I may have a set or two left over.
They are a OE Porsche material even
I took the sound deadening pad from behind the back pad made an oval punch the correct size and cut them from the flat section of the pad.
Could have been the same material originally.
