Have a look in your alcantara wallet properly, as that's where I found my brand new one stashed after 2 years of owning it :hahaha:

Failing that they're ONLY £30 from a stealer :whistle:

[NZ_M3]

i found mine inside the wallet too all scrunched up ... Had to steam iron the damn thing to get it flat again!!

If you arent too fussed I've got quite a bit of alcantara fabric in the right colour that i can cut out in the correct shape and size and pop it in an envelope for you?? (won't cost you a penny either)

An old thread revival since I just got a quote back from bmminiparts for this insert, £30!!! Gotta love owning a CSL though haven't you? :whistle

I think I'll make do with the one I have, even with a wee bit of superglue that leaked out a tube I stupidly stored in there while doing something else. Just glad it didn't go onto the CF.

[LeinsCSL]

If any of you want to save £30 feel free to let me know here that you want one. I don't mind cutting up a few more and posting them over.

That's a very kind gesture Tom, I wouldn't mind a fresh one and can take delivery any others to mail them out from home if it makes it more cost effective for you. :thumbs:

Nice one :wink:

[martin770]

PM sent :beer:

[SNP749]

PM Sent too:)

[Neil M]

Yes Please!

[NZ_M3]

Sounds like there's quite a few of you that need one!!! My PM box basically blew up overnight :119:

All good - what I'll do this time - same as last - is to send a few to a trusted member on here and he can then distribute them to the members?

Last time I sent them to Brett (Bounce) - but I was thinking perhaps to send them to you Neil given that you are going to be sending out the Polo shirts soon?

I'll get them done tonight (I might cut about 10 - there's already 6 of you that want one)).

:supz:

Hi Gents

Will be posting these out today hopefully!!

Bounce (Brett) has been nice enough to sort the local shipping out from his end as I think Neil M is already buried under a pile of Polo shirts so really not right to ask him to do more on sorting local shipping for these!!

Mark CSL and Martin770 - I'll post yours to you two directly.

Enjoy them guys :-D:beer:

Anyone know where I could get one?
