Default Bonnet(Hood)Pad
Since the original part is discontinued, does anyone have a suggestion for replacing the pad.
Thank you,
Art

No idea up there, but we have Fitch The Rubber Man. They have New Age stuff on the roll.

Also, try somone that supplies the Hotrod/Custom fraternity, they WILL have something for sure.

This outfit sells a variety of sizes and thicknesses. Inexpensive, similar to original, looks good.

I think what you’re looking for is closed cell nitrile neoprene. I recall 1/4” being the standard, but perhaps 3/8” being the max.

You need 3M #80 to apply.
