Don - thanks, let me know if you find something that will work.

Paul - The vinyl is attached to a cardboard type material (I probably shouldn't have said "hardboard"). That assembly is then wrapped over the original metal and wood parts, and sewn up. It is not sewn through the wood....the whole thing is tight enough to keep it from moving around. That's how the original ones were made: no attachment between the wood and the cardboard/vinyl.

Anthony - Thanks! It looks like I was looking at the wrong part (must have been the loop that goes around the tailpipe). The number you have is correct. And I didn't even think to check Max Merritt, so that's good to know. I'll get it touch to see if they have one in stock.
