Please note this repair kit has changed. The pads are now "Peel and Stick" not "Drop In". You now get two extra pads and a new pad color, yellow has been added to the kit as well.
This Kit Includes:
12 Replacement Peel & Stick Foam Pads. These will need to be attached to the plastic strip and the slit will need to be cut in the middle. See instructions below.4 Orange, 4 Brown and 4 Yellow. Modeled after the originals. Heat bonded, smooth glossy laminate on top.
1 Orange Smooth Glide felt strip, 6 inches.
You cut to length. This way you don't end up with a bunch of pre-cut felt in sizes you don't need. These are for the carts that used the felt pads attached to the copper spring. Measurements for the 3 different sizes these carts used are included.

20 Sensing Foil Tabs. These are the 7/32" wide type, which is a hair narrower than the full 1/4" wide ones, cut at a 60 degree angle.

4 Six inch long plastic strips to attach to the bottom of the pads and cut to length. Plastic strips are narrower than the originals. This is to ensure proper fit width wise universally.
8 TRACK AVENUE “PEEL AND STICK”
8 TRACK FOAM PAD INSTRUCTIONS.
Please note: These are not designed to be used as a one piece pad.
Carts that were designed in a way in which a one piece pad was used,
used a longer pad than this one. So this pad must be cut down the middle like my drop in pads. Using a single edge scrapor/razor blade to make the cut, and an old intact foam pad as a guide works well.
The adhesive on the bottom of these pads sticks REALLY well. So when attaching the plastic strip, be sure you have things lined up as straight as you can before pressing down!
Once you have attached the plastic strip, simply cut the strip at the edge of the pad with a pair of scissors. Each strip is long enough to do 3 pads. You can reuse the plastic strips from the old pads that have turned to dust or goo. But you will need to completely clean off all of the old adhesive residue. Or these will not stick properly. The easiest thing to do in that situation is clean off the top layer of grime from the strip. And flip it over and attach this pad to the clean side.
Cut a slit in the middle using a scraper/razor blade and an old intact pad as a guide to get the cut as centered as possible. Using the old pad as a guide, center the blade on the top of the peel and stick pad. And push down to make the cut in the top laminate. You may need to do some additional clean up with the blade as sometimes the laminate/foam doesn’t make a clean cut the first time around.
