where to find replacement hoods?

I picked up an overal nice set of shimano ST 6501 STI ultegra shifter/brakes... the only issue is that the hoods are pretty worn and very sticky.

I've been looking around but haven't found replacements, it seems shimano discontinued them :-/

does anyone know where I could find them? or if maybe some other model would fit?

thanks
mark
