Default HOPPY Head light aimer

Any one know of a way to rejuvinate the rubber suction cups on a Hoppy aimer? Mine is about 50 years old and the rubber cups are not cracked but stiff enough so I can't get them to stick to head lights.

I have sprayed 2+2 carb cleaner on some other suction cups, one it melted but it wasn't any good as it was, the other 2 it revived
