I'm not sure if links are allowed here, so go to amazon and search for "High Performance Thermal Pad for Playstation 3" EXACTLY as it shows there. It should be one result of blue pads. That's the exact one I used.

Be sure to never use Artic Silver in the PS3. I would be way too scared that I would get some on the board and fry it, so I always use Artic MX-4. Works better than Silver and its impossible to fry with. You could literally spread it all over the motherboard and nothing would happen.

EDIT:
Also forgot to say, your PS3 is PAL, so if you use Amazon.co.uk, dont. Go to Amazon.com, otherwise you wont find the pads.
