You need to contact Karl Cordwell .. his number is in Sprint .. south or Noth Yorkshire .. I think.

Thought Karl said at the last BBWF that he wasn't doing anymore and was getting rid of those he had left?

Richard Thorpey was doing some as well, might have some left although they were probably Karls?

Yep...RT Racing...

[TVRleigh_BBWR]

As far as I know RT was Karl's ones, and he was sold out.

Ok for sizes.
They are 4.5mm wide and 6mm deep 3mm skirt and 3mm bezel
The small ones are
Internal 48.8 mm with a 1.5mm lip this gives a fitting of 51.8mm (on my dash the hole is 52.5mm)

The Big one are
Internal 77.5 mm with a 1mm lip this gives a fitting of 79.5mm (on my dash the hole is 80.5mm)

Not my dash does not have the seal that is used to blend the walnut to the metal so you can't see the metal. so most will dashes will have a smaller hole. Karl made them slightly smaller as none of the dashes are the same, but there is a 3.5mm lip so this will cover any differences. Karl recommended using blue tack to keep them in place.
See Pic of a cad drawing I made as was planning to get them made if I could get any of Karl
