Trunk felt source identifited

I recently stumbled into a source of the "woven wool" felt which I think was originally used to trim the front trunk. No idea if it was used on ALL Geese....my impression is that it got beat up quickly and was routinely replaced with a thicker non-woven 'Pantera' type felt. 8MA1010 had only the bottom panel still covered with this material (see photos), all other front trunk panels had 'Pantera' felt. The only other cars I've identified with the "woven" felt are 8MA936, 1072 & 1120. Must have been more originally!

The first 2 pics show the underside of my existing bottom panel covering (tho worse for wear, note the strip of neoprene that is adheared around the perimeter). The third pic shows the woven texture. The fourth pic is a possible source of new material. Reportedly the material has much clearer 'weave' texture in real life. I'm going to order some and will advise how it looks! Regards to all, Nate
