if u can't find the size of ur carbontex washer, buy a carbontex sheet and make ur own.
if that is too much trouble, there is some seller in eBay sell carbontex washer. and ask them to custom make the size for u, but u gotta know the size of ur washer. Hope this help.

cheers
Ben

Hi David,

I already send your request to Japan, so if you get a hold of it somewhere else or you can source it out please let me know so we can stop your inquiry.
don't want my supplier to spend his time looking around for nothing.

Tight lines
Sami
