Right managed to get to B&Q today and bought al they had left (10). They are usually found in the metal and plastic moulding section adjacent to wallplugs and srews/fixings.

Marv seems to want three and Weyrmaster 4 so three left over.

If they arent very bad you can do what I did

Drill very small holes into the leather and back of the doorcard were it has peeled from, and sew it toghether

Mine isn't very noticeable, you can only see it if you really look for it

Will upload some pictures in a minute

Hiya,
went to b&Q today to get some of this, I found only one but without barcode, so we used the pics from the post to find the product on the system
here is the code if anyone wants to get these:

3232637001854

£3.34 now :)

ive got 1 on order should take 2 weeks and they recon it will only be found in the larger megastores (warehouse?)

anyway, it slid on great gets really hard once its on about 20cm you need a glove that grips it otherwise it will slide off or you'l kink it, looks good and hopefully will sit on the door now much better, i also bought some of that L trim its only £1:50 a metre like in the other doorcard post just incase i need to cover it better.

cheers for the info
