I decided to replace mine with as close to original as possible. After 45 years there was no sign of rust on my car and after it's restoration is complete it won't be left out in all weathers.

After a search around I managed to find a very close substitute felt in Germany ironically.

One 6mm thick 20x20cm square piece is enough to replace it all. Once measured out it cuts well with a sharp craft knife.
