bonnet insulator

Hi all,

I need to replace the bonnet insulator on my uk spec bonnet as mine is looking tired but they have been discontinued by toyota. I can get a Jap spec one but would obviously need to cut the middle out for the bonnet scoop. Does anyone know if a jap spec bonnet insulator would fit a uk spec bonnet (apart from doing the scoop cut out)?

Many thanks, John

Just to confirm, a JDM bonnet insulator will fit a uk spec. All the holes line up, there isn’t a mark for cutting the scoop hole, I had to use my old insulator as a template, it cuts ok with a new stanley blade.

I was shocked at how thin the new one was against my old one. I guess they get moisture in them and start to seperate?

The yellow line is the offcut of the new one. Its only 2mm thick around the edges (there is thick padding in the middle)
