Is there anyway I can buy the rubber/plastic strips you sometimes get with accessories to help fit them? For example if I am fitting a light to the handlebars and there are pieces of rubber/plastic you can insert between the light fitting and the bars to ensure a tight fit.

Not sure what they are called or where to get them so any help appreciated.

Cut up an old inner tube.

But actually I've got a box full of them in the garage because you always get a selection when you buy lights. It's just a question of assembling them all in one place rather than having them all over the workshop and tool kit.

I prefer the cut up inner tube to the shims you get with accessories, they always seem to come up too short, too thick or too thin!
