I'm going to resurrect this as I'm quite curious as to where you can find them. Have seen them in photos and they look pretty handy! Any ideas anyone?

got mine off ebay last year, so you might just have to keep an eye out for them. don't think there's much demand for them over here...

I've been trawling every website I can think of including ebay :( true. I think I might make my own from some soft leather or something like that, what do you reckon? Could you tell me what material yours is made from so I could replicate it?

won't get a chance to have a look till tomorrow, but i'll post then.

have you tried turtle trading? they're a Japanese company with a branch in the uk so they might have one or be able to import one.

They go around the fuel tank filler neck and protect the paint from petrol drips. This is "Mini 360"'s  picture (hope you don't mind me using it), he has his neck inside the boot.
