Replacement for the small rubber spacer in the warning light cluster?

I just finished up replacing all the solder in my warning light cluster with new stuff, but the small rubber spacer thing for the clock came off in pieces when I disassembled it, so I was wondering where I could get a replacement.

The 35 years have not been kind to it, and it definitely needs replaced. I had to glue it back together for that picture. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. I really don’t want to have to buy a whole new cluster because of this one piece

One potential option, I simply reused some rubber like material I had to replace my cracked “support/spacer” pieces. I just cut out the same shapes with said material, test fit the new pieces before putting it all together. It worked well and should last for many years.
