CD Player Laser Assembly Shock Absorber Mounts

[SRMcGee]

Folks:

I'm repairing my CD player and have damaged two of the four rubber shock absorber mounts that suspend the VAM1202/12 laser assembly from the CD drawer assembly (see photo). It seems that these mounts are near impossible to source -- they aren't included with replacement VAM1202/12 laseer assemblies and I cannot find the part number for these buggers. In any event, does anyone know where I can pick up 4 new ones?

Regards,
Scott

Yeah, that might be the simplest way to proceed, though I'd prefer to find a source for new parts. Someone must make these little buggers.

Thanks,
Scott

I bought them two weeks ago, here: CD17 Suspension Unit Buffer M. The only problem is shipping costs.

They won't sell to the US. In fact, they only sell to a subset of the EU. Curious. I think it's time to find a junked CD player or parts on ebay.
