This is what I am looking for
I believe I ordered the right items.
I guess I will see what I get.
And I did up a quick 3D model so I might print one up in my spare time to check model.
Thanks

D'oh!! I followed one of the evilBay links sent to him, and as the auction had ended the 'bay "helpfully" suggested an alternate - the all plastic bottom feet used on the 80s-90s era gear. Guess I should have looked more closely at the original item.

The OP was talking about the rear feet, not the bottom feet. But yes,
the System I enclosure feet are a lot harder to find. Possibly because
they're a bit harder to remove. ;)

The NEW style putty colored and grey colored all plastic injection
molded feet used on the more modern HP and later gear are readily
available inexpensively on the 'bay. In my experience, however, the
older, hard black plastic ones with the spring loaded metal lock button
used on 60s to 70s-ish gear are considerably more difficult to come by,
and are also typically much pricier when you can find them.
Of course, I have a lot of older equipment that takes the latter. They
are something I will be exploring the option of printing at some point
in the future when I get an FDM printer.

As far as I can tell those are pretty standard HP feet that are
abundant on
ePay in any colors. I seriously doubt 3D-printed ones would be any
cheaper
not even mentioning their poor quality, not even near original feet...
