i have a Nagler 9 T1 that is quite a nice eyepiece but the rubber eyeguard is poor.

Baader sell a winged eyecup that looks good but you have to buy it from a dealer in Oz and they don't seem to carry any stock that I can tell.

Are there any other sources of good rubber eyecups?

Teleskop-express sells the Baader rubber eye pieces in various sizes, check here:

Sadly the price of shipping them would be significant, unless you bundle the purchase with something more significant.

Try https://www.edmundoptics.com/f/rubber-eyeguards/12476

They have both US and AU site.

Try Scopestuff also, not sure if they have though as you have to sift through their long list of parts on their website.
