Mine are all crushed, and in any case it looks like they weren't the original ones. I'm not going to be ordering them from AA obviously, so I will probably need to make my own. Anyone have the proper dimensions? Looks like the ones I took off were made from slicing something like rubber (fuel?) hose, which is what I might try if I find more or less the right diameter/thickness. ID is probably 6mm. TIA

LOL! I can absolutely imagine ordering them from AA and getting some randomly cut pieces of fuel line at $4.77 a piece, $12 handling fee and $20 ship.

914Rubber has them, and probably quite a bit less for the whole set than for each AA piece.

Once you find correct size you may try McMaster Carr. Their quantities are normally high but betting you could sell excess. I would be in for 8 ( I think that is qty).
Just a thought……although may not be worth the hassle…..still would like to know of size and source. Thanks

Well again, ordering from the US is just out of the question because of shipping costs... So fuel hose it is. All I really need is a height. somewhere around 8mm?
