eyeglass parts

I'm looking for a pair of temple arms for my older specs.
The frame is no longer made and the shape doesn't seem to be made either.
It doesn't have to be an exact replacement part. Any temple arm that will fit would be fine. It's a 1MM tooth w/spring.

anyone found a source for this? So far I'm coming up with just one possibility and I emailed them.

that was where I got the first set, but perhaps there are some new sources.

Maybe the reading glasses at wally/CVS/etc would have something that could cannibalized.

Post a picture. I just had to ditch an almost new frame that broke near the bridge. Safilo is the brand name I think.

Arms are pristine.
