Loking for rare piece...(or broken PC Card)

I just bought my new Dell 8100 series custom laptop, but one thing REALLY bothers me. Those so-called PC Card placeholoders don't stay in their damn slots. Many times I find myself lifting the laptop and nearly dropping it because those damn flimsy plastic things fall right out.

I remember seeing something a long time ago. It was a business card, printed on an actual PCMCIA/PC Card shell (empty of course).
This would be the perfect solution because it would actually fit over the pins on the inside, providing better protection, and higher friction so it wouldn't fall out. I would be willing to buy anyone's non-functioning PC Card just to use it as a placeholder.

I need two!
 
No, but I have to worry about dust, and other air borne things. It's a pretty big friggin hole anyway.
