I don't think this is an off-the-shelf part.

I was looking to source them some years ago and I couldn't find them anywhere.

Probably it's easy to make them if you have access to a 3d printer.
 
thanks guys... I was going crazy  ;D ;D ;D

would you have a tip to get some of this white square caps.
I bought some from ssl ... but now I have 2 sort of "square cap " and I have 2 sort of alps switch I could use for the project I am doing...
Is there a way to use switch 1 with Cap Nbr 2 ?
do you know where to find them ? it seems easy to find... but no luck until now (looking for white with no marking)
thanks for your help !!


PS : sorry for those newbie questions ...

They are generally interchangeable among brands as long as the mating size is the same.  2.8mm and 3.3mm are the two common sizes.  Places like Mouser usually carry the caps,  some manufacturers include C&K, E-switch,  as well as Alps. Look at their catalogs and you should be able to cross reference what you need.
 
thank you very much... once again :))
