Replacement leaf spring contacts

Has anyone ever been able to find a good replacement for the flimsy leaf spring contacts in this charging dock? It seems like a common issue that the contacts bend and break (I knowingly bought a second hand dock that has a broken pin).

I've been unable to find a replacement I'm confident will fit/work. Googling it returns this Reddit post ``https://www.reddit.com/r/AskElectronics/... where someone else was also looking for the part, but was unsuccessful. If any electronics gurus could point me to a part that would be a good fit that would be great. If not, I'll probably blindly buy a few different ones and see if they work.

I could not find any spring contacts with suitable dimensions anywhere. But I did manage to fix my dock by replacing the broken contact with a pogo pin instead. The pogo pin base was a bit too wide for the plastic housing that the springs poke through, so I had to widen the hole a bit with some emery cloth. It's not pretty but it works.

SMD type 5mm pogo pins.

They come in blocks of two but I only needed one and didn't want the black plastic housing they come in, so I broke that off with some snips.

I used a hot air rework station to remove the old broken spring and to mount the new pogo pin in its place. Then I used my soldering iron to put some additional solder around the pin and pad to make sure it holds in place.
