I just got a used Prommy. I did not get the Fitting Foam Gasket for the rear cover. What can I used to replace this? Is there any particular foam that must be used or is there something better out there?
 
Usually neoprene works fine - it's a closed cell foam that some e-tailers stock but if you don't want to spend money mousemats are made of it :D - just glue several bits in a stack to make it more insulative.

in the u.s, we get a heater element in place of the foam gasket...whereas others get the foam gasket...

like previously stated, neoprene works fine

Ok I have the US version. I have the heater element. I was led to believe that I also needed the foam with the heater element. Is that not the case? Sorry to be such a Pain the A*&, but I just fried a new P4C800-E and 9500 Pro while OC'in the vid card :( I want to protect me investment the best I can
