Replacement white rubber feet for C128, 1541c, 1541-II, 1581 & C64c Sets of 4 white rubber feet EXACTLY like the originals for 2$US for each set.
Shipping as light packet to the US: 6$US
These are the exact same thing since Commodore closed down but they purchased the rubber feet for their computers from 3M which is still in business. I buy large sheets of the exact same type. They are also used on Amiga 500, 600 and 1200.
The 1571 uses larger rubber feet but I think the 1570 also uses the same type I sell.
Also available in black for VIC-20, C16, C64, 1541 drives and Wico joysticks

What about good replacement feet for the C128D keyboard. Do you know of / have any?
Thank you.

What about good replacement feet for the C128D keyboard. I've thought about that question, too. Still in Las Vegas, Robert Bernardo Fresno Commodore User Group www.dickestel.com/fcug.htm

I had a very hard time finding a picture of the underside of the C128D keyboard. It seems these rubber feet are squarish and I don't know the exact dimensions.
The reason it is still possible to get replacement rubber feet for VIC-20, C64, C64c, 1541-II, 1581 and C128 is because they were made by 3M which unlike Commodore didn't go out of business.
I don't know what Commodore used as rubber feet for the C128D keyboard.

My keyboard has one missing. The one in the middle front. And another one is always falling off and I am afraid I will loose it. I wouldn't mind change them all with new replacements.

remark It's almost impossible to use the measurements you just gave to find the origin component. Whatever Commodore bought, it must have been based on imperial physical dimensions as all engineering was done in the U.S. If I take the numbers you posted and convert them to imperial values, they give irregular numbers. I suspect the real dimensions are something like 0.75 x 0.25 x 1/16 (possibly 3/32) inch. I managed to find the genuine rubber feet for the VIC-20, 64, 1541 and the white ones for the C64c, C128, A500, etc... by pure luck. Around 2007, I purchased a UV eraser and was totally baffled to notice it had the same rubber feet as the VIC-20. With the UV eraser came a spare set of feet and sure enough the exact part number was printed on the wax paper sheet. There are thousands of different models of rubber feet sold by electronic components distributors. When I visited Mouser for that part number, I then discovered it was available in different colors.
