Are you referring to these? The ones used to prevent the Jeep door from prematurely closing?
You can try the vendors in this forum. Quadratec & Northridge 4x4 come to mind...

I have opted to install the Starfab door stops. I realize I will be drilling a hole in my doors, but the finished look is much more stock looking. I ordered mine directly from the company that makes them. Shipping was quick and reasonable.

Just a follow up...
I finally got around to installing these on the weekend. I'm impressed. Great instructions, seem like a solid product.
Everything lined up beautifully, and the finished look is factory. They operate just as I had expected, and with the winds we get around here I am glad to have them. I like the fact that I don't have to worry about getting caught in a slamming door anymore
and they don't look like some backyard homemade door shock I threw together on a whim. All in all I am impressed with both the design and the function. Looks like Starfab has a winning product on their hands in my opinion.
I realize some might think that drilling a hole in the door is a big deal, but it's never going to be seen, and the mechanism fills and seals it anyways. Not nearly as intimidating as tearing out half of my electronics, and cutting up my stock battery tray,air intake, and ecm holder to make room for my dual battery setup!
I'd rather not have my doors on anyways, but climate dictates that I do more than I do not.
Plenty of mods require the modification of stock components, and this was no more intrusive than many others.
