Default carbon arrows loose in quiver

I just switched from aluminum to carbon arows. The carbon arrows, with their smaller diameter, don't fit tight in the slots of my Qwikee quiver. Anybody out there have any ideas how to tighten things up? Moleskin? Is there anything else I can use or do I have to replace the quiver?

Check the web and mail order houses. I believe KwikeeKwiver, but could be wrong, makes a different bottom part of the quiver that can be changed out to "grip" the smaller carbon shafts properly.

I used to use a Qwickie and found that the easiest way to do it was to use some fleece and cut strips. Wrap one halfway around an arrow and push it into the slot. Wiggle it around a little to make sure it sticks good and you are good to go.

Thanks to all for your recommendations. I went to my local bow shop and they had the Qwikee carbon arrow holder (the rubber piece) in stock and it only cost $6.00. Took care of the problem. I appreciate all your input.
