I am in the final stages of completing restoration on my 115 coupe. The last issue at the Upholstery Shop is the Sun Visors. On the inside of the visor is a rubber tube stitched to the hard board. This rubber tube slides over the chromed metal arm and allows for movement of the visor as needed. This rubber needs replacing and I have not been able to find a source. Steele Rubber and Kanter do not carry. Has anyone found a source or a solution that has worked for you? Attaching a photo...Thank you for your help.

If it's simply going to be covered by fabric, and unseen, wouldn't an appropriate sized rubber hose or something work?

Thanks Kev, That is exactly what I am considering but thought I'd run it past this forum incase someone has done this before.......
