WTB: Rubber "feet" for Torpedo 18b

I need 4 rubber feet (grey if possible) for a Torpedo 18b.
Could also use the 4 rubber foot 'pads' on the underside of the case.
If anyone can direct me that would be swell.
Thanks

If you don't mind 3D printed, reproduction feet, this fellow has some on ebay: Replacement Typewriter or Case Feet for Torpedo 18/18b/Bluebird (set of 4) | eBay

I've not purchased anything from him before, but I believe Pete E. has: Typewriter Talk » Facit TP-2 (boardhost.com)

Auggie,

I have purchased 3-4 times from that eBay seller and the quality of his feet is excellent and he ships very quickly.  I do not think you would be disappointed.

Auggie,

And yes...some may think folks (like me) are crazy to spend $ 40 for a set of rubber feet for a typewriter that may have only cost us $ 50-60 to pick up.

Auggie,

If you do not need/want original-looking feet, you might try this outfit.

I will second the guy on ebay.  Have purchased several sets from him and they are excellent.
