Examination of the Style FR2087F5 muffler reveals that it is constructed of narrow strips of rabbit fur intertwined with a textile mesh. It measures approximately 48 x 4½ inches. Examination of the Style FR208765 collar reveals that it is constructed of strips of rabbit fur surrounding a central core of textile. It measures approximately 24 x 2½ inches.

Chapter 43 Note 3 states that “Heading 4303 includes furskins and parts thereof, assembled with the addition of other materials, and furskins and parts thereof, sewn together in the form of garments or parts or accessories of garments or in the form of other articles.”
