What is it called?

[rumrumm]

I am looking for the brush-like fibers used in shifter and hand brake slots in interiors. I want to use it to finish off the slot that my automatic trunk opener travels in. The problem is: I don't know what that stuff is called or where to get it. I could make my own using shop brush fibers, but I thought I could save myself some work if I could just order it. The upholstery shops I have checked with know what I am talking about by have no idea where to get it. Any help would be appreciated. I plan on improvising tomorrow (Saturday) unless someone can point me in the right direction. Thanks.

It's called a strip brush, and is available from McMaster Carr. Page 1196 of the current catalog.
