Default Air Con pulley damper

Hi all,

I noticed the other day that I've lost one of the 3 dampers on my air con pulley. At least I think they are called a damper - or perhaps a balancer, it's a rubber disc that seems to simply push into the front a/c plate, I guess is about an inch round and approx 5mm thick.

It's a 2007 STi Hawk, but I cant seem to find just the dampers for sale anywhere?

I've no idea how long ago I lost it, I can't see it in the engine bay nor was it sitting in the undertray when I recently changed the engine oil.

Looks like it would be a simple press fit into the plate, but I can't find them for sale?

My pulley looks different to that, here's mine, you can see the missing damper, the third one is up tucked away under the belt cover.

They are set in a triangle, but mine I guess is now off balance.

Sure you could just pull the other 2 out and itd be balanced again.

Just look like rubber caps
