Default Tourer Sponge Air Filter In Rear

The sponge air filters in the luggage compartment side panels have started to disintegrate due to sun exposure.

Anyone know if these are available off the shelf or have a suggestion for suitable replacement material?

Thanks

Mine had disintegrated 10 years ago, not because of over exposure to the Sun but rather because they were made badly using poor quality material as is the case in far too many interior furnishings in the 75/ZT, when you consider the car cost nearly 24K back in 2002, I do not believe (might be wrong?) there are replacement parts you might have to access the panel and glue in a suitable long lasting replacement the kind of material that is used in a filter found in dehumidifiers, I might try it when I get a chance.
