various manufacturers use differing pad shapes, as above fire some pics up and dimensions and it should be straight forward

Yep found them now .think these go for like 213 on camskill :0 I'm gob smacked .I got them for nothing .I'm a hgv driver for a car parts company .They chuck away so much stuff that have maybe a crushed corner of box or a label smudged .so I was in the yard as it was my yard/ cover shift .so basically you just potter about unless needed .and I helped the yard guy sort this box for skip .spotted these and my boss said I could take them .crazy to think there's probs been loads gone to dump .definitely keeping the eyes peeled from now on .haha thankyou for helping me out with this .much appreciated .steve
