BTW, Forgot to mention:
I used 1" square foam strips sold as A/C weatherstripping in almost any HW store,Home Depot, etc. Come in a plastic bag. Trim it w/ a utility knife w/fresh blade. Just glue 2 side by side to get the width w/contact cement.

You can use 3M spray adhesive, similar to what you'd use for carpet or fabric. Any contact adhesive will do, even out of a bottle from Home Depot.

I went to a local foam store that sells foam for beds and chairs and found a gray type that works very well.

Tommy,
FerrariPartsExchange has pretty much any kind of rubber you'll ever want for a 308. Bonnet sponge is the last item on this page:

It's time to replace. I have one piece seen below, but I need another. There has to be a source besides the dealer. Any thoughts? Also, what adhesive is best?Upload
