I saw the same brands on Amazon as well. The ebay price is better (shipped). I ask here first to support members.

I might have some in my garage I'd send to you for the shipping cost. I'm slammed right now but will take a look later.
EDIT: Its 16" by 6 1/4"

Oh its thick IMO. I think it also has adhesive backing. I know there's a peel off layer.
