yes this looks like the part we need, in this photo is this an original AC Cobra seat and rubber diaphragm or is this an ERA?

I spoke to David earlier at Kirkham he did say he invested in tooling to make these parts identical to OE however with the war in Ukraine and their factory in Poland he is forced to shut down pretty much and is not able to produce much now. He said he will look to see if he has anything in the warehouse i might be able to purchase.

I ordered some TR4 lower diaphragms since they are very close in dimensions and this might be a plan B. I can not fix these seats properly without fixing the lower suspension of the seat frame so one way or another i may need to get creative here and it is not a visible part unless you pull the lower cushion apart.

I appreciate the replies so far on this and anyone else have any suggestions please post in this thread or send me a direct message anytime to talk
