still need UFO pads- bounty!

[Bernie Benz]

Brett,

Buy a couple of AZ sets, several years ago they were only $50.  As I said
before, they are most probably stock Jurid pads.  But you should be asking
for the full FMSI number, MKD 467.  These pads were never made in the D 467
material, nonmetalic organic.
