Dry rotted floorboard pads

So I jacked up my 2000 cop glide to open up the primary to install an M6 chain tensioner and noticed the pads on the floorboards are dry rotted with half the pads already broken/split, just pulled the pads right off the bracket, they are SHOT.

I like the stock look, can you buy replacement pads or am I gonna wind up with new boards?

pads are cheap.

rubber wears out.

look at your brake pedal, shifters and others while at it.

Oh man!! I wish I had saved mine. I'd send them to you for the price of shipping. They were in good shape, just not the look i wanted. Maybe someone will chime in here and send you a set!

Thanks Raceface but I already ordered a set.
Now that I have everything apart there, I am shopping for a clean set of OEM shifter set. The one eyesore on the bike is my heel/toe shift levers are welded together, looks real bad. I think the cops strip the splines shifting like a lunatic when they take off after a speeder or something.
