rubber pad replacements for dell laptops

This is a real technical question grin.
Where do you guys get your rubber pad replacements for bottom of the
dell laptops? Any favorite store or just any Walmart, hardware,
etc.. ? Are they self sticking or do I need to use rubber glue?

If I'm lucky, I have a scraptop of a same or similar model, so I pull
off the pads from the scraptop and put them on a functioning laptop...

Most hardware stores have square peel-and-stick pads...but they are
thicker/higher.

Hi!

I have used a product from the Waxman Consumer Group to replace
missing computer feet. As best I remember, what you would be looking
for are the SoftTouch round gripper pads. They come in black and white
colors (although I've only seen the black ones on the Waxman CPG web
site).

There are larger ones (desktop computers) and smaller ones (laptops).
Whatever the size, I've never had them come off. There are enough in a
package to do at least two computers.

There are also small, round, clear ones (self-stick) used for lamps or
brick-a-brack.

Thanks, Bob! I've had this old brick-a-brack hanging around here for 30
years needing replacement pads.
