They're probably one of the most needed parts to be reproduced that hasn't been yet.

Would adhesive backed felt pads that go on the bottom of chair legs work also?

James from DMT was looking into this material a few years ago.  He found a vender that makes it, however the required minimum order was a ridiculously huge amount.  He would never be able to recoup his money.  There is a product that is sold by a Camaro restoration company that is close.  The problem is that it's about half the width that Mopars use.

I ended up using the soft side of velcro, and some foam,this will be fine, I bet if they make them they will be $20.00 a piece ,so that is not worth it at this point
