Hiya, Glad it helped. You can get the stuff from halford by all means. Try to get glass cloth though, rather then chopped strand mat - you will know what I mean when you see it. Cloth is much better to work with.
The alternative is to have a look for a local glass fibre/composite supplier (yell.com/google etc) and get some cloth and polyester resin from them. You want Plain Weave glass cloth at about 120g weight - should be about £5 square meter off the roll. Resin should only be about a fiver as well. That is the road I would go down personally. You will get much better cloth from them. If your roofbox is black and you are feeling flush you could even get a bit of carbon cloth for a nice mathcing black finish!! - same procedure for carbon repair as glass.
If ou go that way pay attention to the heat warning - polyester resin left in quantity gets red hot and can very easily catch fire. Put your pot somewhere safe!!
