Garmin HRM Pro Plus replacement of white sleeve/cover

Hello, I’ve lost the white sleeve/cover for my Garmin HRM Pro plus, anyone know how I can get a replacement in Australia? I can’t seem to find it under accessories or spares… I have previous blue sleeve from HRM-Tri which doesn’t fit:-(

Thanks Philip, will contact Garmin support, does anyone know if whilst waiting for the replacement, using the strap without the sleeve will cause any issues?

I think it’s just cosmetic given how easy it is to remove/replace.

I contacted Garmin support in Europe one year ago and they simply replied they don't have replacements for the silicone cover. I hope Garmin support in Australia will turn out to offer better customer service.

I don't think using the strap without the silicone cover makes any difference: the gasket in the battery compartment is what makes the HRM waterproof.

You can also use a piece of old inner tube (standard trekking bike) as a temporary replacement. Fits perfectly.
Don't worry, the rubber is made of butyl rubber. It is food-safe and not dangerous for the skin.
