Default Where to buy OEM rubber exhaust bushing

I'm looking for the rubber exhaust bushing which connects the tailpipes to the frame. It is GM part number 10243316

auto-zone/napa/aa auto, have a generic replacement which is only 2/3 the thickness of the original so i'm trying to find the oem part.

GMpartsdirect.com still lists them (for for $4.33 plus s/h) but only sells them in a bundle of 5.

Is there another site which may sell them individually? Does anybody have one laying around that they would be willing to sell?

What you're looking for is called an exhaust hanger. The one from any parts store will work fine. All it does is isolate the exhaust from the body to cut down on noise.

The EOM one ripped through, how well can an aftermarket one hold up that is only 2/3 the thickness or the OEM one its replacing. I'd rather pay a few extra bucks now then have my tailpipes dragging on the highway.

here is a side by side

The OEM hanger ripped through after how many years/miles?

Not really sure. The catback was on the car when i got it over 4 years/20,000 miles ago (the car has ~75K on the clock).
