I had read a bunch of posts on FC about various products / methods etc but unfortunately was struggling to get any supplier to send the alternative (cheaper) products to Australia..

In the end I went with the non-OEM alternative part supplied by Maranello Classic Parts in the UK (part number
62808000/K). Secured it with Loctite.

Photos of before / during / after below. Hardest part was removing the old insulation which had seen better days.

Pretty happy with how it turned out..

 

if you can find it! I searched high and low. Special order only it seems
