Default Wanted: Carrier Air Filter

I know this post should be in the 'Sales/Wants' section. But just to aim at the carrier fraternity. I'd very much like to replace the Landrover air filter that is currently installed in my Canadian MK2, with the correct filter.
Seeing how a few of you chaps in the UK still keep finding stuff! Is it possible that one of you can help.

Regards Ron

Thanks Richard,that is definitely an option. I'm sure Terry Roberts (Metal Magic) could do it and maybe my Landrover filter is close enough to be modified to save the cost of a complete item. If nothing comes up, I'll be in touch.
