I once replaced that strap with a piece cut from the end of a battery
cable that had an "eye" at the end.  It takes a serious soldering effort
but it worked for me.

I think mine is in pretty bad shape. From what I recall, it's not so easy to replace that because of how it's held on. I'll also call around to see if anyone rebuilds them in my area.
