Check with David Nock at BCS. If he doesn't have them, you should be
able to fab them; use the screw holes and the Moss illustrations to get
dimensions (or maybe David or someone else knows). The 'felt' is
nothing special, just thin (probably the lightest felt weight you can
buy, in grey).
The blanking panel has a single felt 'seal'--same for the R/H pedal
holes--the steering column has a plate and a felt on either side of the
scuttle.

<div>I am at the point of installing the suspension and steering
of my BN2 restoration. Today I am trying to figure out the
two plates and seals that go on the firewall to seal the
steering column outer tube. I have one plate with a through
hole on the passenger side, but nothing on the firewall side.Â
Do both of these plates have a seal sandwiched beneath them,
or just one? The seals are not available from the usual
suspects, so I surmise I have to make them. What material
should they be? Just plain rubber? I have no plate for the
seal on the inside of he car. The only vendors I can find
that sell that plate are overseas. Don't want to make an
order for such a small part with the prohibitive shipping
costs. I don't have very much in the way of metal cutting
tools to make my own. Any ideas where to source this plate?</div>
