Default Fuel Door Stop

Does anyone know where you can find those little rubber fuel door stops? I think the top one on mine must have stuck to the door with this nice Texas heat, and pulled out before I noticed it being gone.

Home Depot or an appliance repair store will have something that will work too.

There was a post not long ago about these rubber bumpers - I think they cost about $5 each from a dealer.

QTY 2 FP Number 3547884 That is the number for one bumper.

Description. Bumper-F/12.945

I believe they are around $6-$7 each.
