Unless it is physically damaged or torn I would just give it a good clean, bang it on the ground a few times till all the sh*t is gone.

Under the scuttle panel, cheap new and always worth fitting a new one.

Cheers! Gonna pop down for one today,  Mine was soaking wet due to the scuttle drain hole blockage problem, which is now sorted.

I dont think its worth drying them out or reusing them as they get smelly and it makes the  blowers smell! plus for the price its daft not too especially when you alredy have the covers off to do them!

Mine was black when I changed mine, and leaves...even a dead spider LMAO! After that there were no funky smells coming through the heaters anymore. Cheap and simple to do :)
