Default Floorboard insert repair

Bought my bike last year and it has the full Nostalgia package of floorboard inserts and pegs and I really like it.

I found that the rubber pieces that push through the holes in the floorboard pan are breaking off and some are already missing.

I obviously don't want to try to buy all new ones.
I am hoping someone out there has had a similar issue and has some tips for how they repaired this situation.

when searching for floorboards on Ebay, i found a dealer selling just the bellows part that pushes through the holes .

i guess they figured you'd glue them to your existing floorboards somehow. STRANGE. but far cheaper than new floorboards

set of 8 for just under $10. also from Drag Specialties

IF the inserts are made of rubber you could get some vulcanizing tire cement and patch
