Is there any option other than the official LR one yet? Couldn't see anything at Billing, where even Mantec were only re-selling the LR one. Have they managed to patent the fixing hole positions or something?!

Mantec make the official LR one, so it's theirs to sell
Not sure if RLD has done one yet - worth an ask? 06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti
Any issues with the site let me know!

If Uncle Ray is producing his version. I would take his. I had three Mantec versions - the third was the best fit bit is still not as good fit as the one on my D3. After protracted discussions and promises of "We'll get back to you" they never did. It's not rocket science to get the profile right but it appears that Mantec are unable set up a press to make two simple creases. I gave up with them.
See February pictures in My Gallery. That was the first version, the third was only marginally better.

I hope it's them, and not the other option, ie LR can't make a D4 straight!

Interestingly, Mantec's first response was just that: An irregularity in the LR manufacturing process.
