Binocular strap code needed

I have some 8x32BA binoculars which use a strap similar to the 14312 in that they have a molded rubber shoulder pad, but the fasten on very differently as they have to feed through the lugs on the binoculars and then connect together with a slotted plastic system. I need another one - does anyone know the Leica code for this strap?

Sorry - I checked the manual that came with mine in 1987, and no part numbers are given. But the strap with mine had no pad anyway.

I believe the Leica code is 42 159.

I followed Jaap's advice and asked Harry Benz for a binocular strap. He has the attachment point designed for a Leica SL and it works nicely on binoculars.

I then set it up with a hand strap Le Cravatte mated to a j-Loop over the shoulder strap. I don't do birding but at sporting events I like to be able to pass the binoculars to friends and the j-Loop allows me to unclip the strap and quickly and them to the friend.
