Here is the link

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/231375629790?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_from%3DR40%26_sacat%3D0%26_nkw%3D231375629790%26_rdc%3D1

My K0 (see image below, don't believe the fictitious text on completion date...it's still in a million bits!  :(  ) was fitted with a UK style K2 seat when I bought it and it had  panel pattern  at the rear destinctive to K2 3-panel at the rear .  We never got K3-K5 here though only K0,K1,K2,K6. But the original UK  K2 I think  had the 'three  panel at rear' cover. K6 I think  had 4 and any Honda replacement modern seat will be the K6 style (4 panel)  making the K2 rare and expensive.


Cheers ... AshD

Ash, I know. It is 3 panels for a UK K2 because someone in a email not too long ago told me that it was a 4 panel. So, after i stripped the original cover thinking it was a USA i found out the info was wrong  :'(
This is why i wrote: "Still this is not perfect".
