Title: Under bonnet insulation any good sources? Post by: peteracs on February 06, 2017, 12:05:52 AM Hi All
Anyone have a source of the under bonnet insulation? My old insulation is falling to bits and I need to replace. Peter Title: Re: Under bonnet insulation any good sources? Post by: WestonE on February 06, 2017, 07:35:33 AM Hi Peter
I know the Beta Boyz website used to sell a new liner because I bought 1 but not sure if they are still available. Eric Title: Re: Under bonnet insulation any good sources? Post by: Neil-yaj396 on February 06, 2017, 08:11:57 AM Peter
I have a Betaboyz under bonnet liner that I didn't use in the end when I fitted my new bonnet. I think it was £70, yours for £50 if you want it.

Post by: lukasdeopalenica on February 07, 2017, 01:35:39 PM I took my tired insulation to un upholsterer, who patched the missing parts and covered the mat on both sides with a new temperature resistant black material. In a results the shape and style of the insulation mat is maintained and looks almost like new.

On the early cars it is not contoured, so the one from Mark will be good for me. I think the early one was held by self tapping screws, where the later was held by plastic clips?

There's a guy I know not too far from me (Tony Archer in Huddersfield) who does a lot of retrimming for cars and bikes; I'm sure he could do something like that for mine.
Title: Re: Under bonnet insulation any good sources? Post by: lukasdeopalenica on February 13, 2017, 03:44:54 AM I refurbished it a few years ago and it is still in the same shape. In reality it looks even better than on the picture attached above.
