Source for rubber dampers for fuse box?

I was doing some wiring harness work and the rubber mount/damper for the fuse box (it surrounds the fuse box and anchors it to the bike) basically crumbled. Most of the rubber dampers on my wiring harness are old and brittle. Anyone know of a source for new ones?
I'm not sure if I'm describing them correctly, but if you look under your seat, all the connectors are held to the bike by rubber mounts that surround the relays.

I know exactly what your looking for

. Unfortunately Yammy does not sell the damper separately. I was there myself searching for a replacement and found Yamaha uses the same fuse box set-up on their Big Bear ATV BUT this one is not an integral part of the wire harness as it is on the FZR and can be bought separately. Do a search on Ebay for "Big Bear fuse". You'll see what I'm talking about. I bought one for $10 and got the mounting damper, fuses, cover and the fuse block to boot.

Guys,
yamaha use the same dampers across a range of models in fact the "Big Four" manufacturers share parts of this type as well. I replaced mine with Ducati stuff from the salvage yard.
