The rubber end is simply a grip to make it easier to open and close the lever that holds the batteries in place. It doesn't interfere with electrical contact.
P.S... It would probably be better to post technical questions as new threads in the Middleweight forum rather than hide them in the Spaceliner Reference sticky. You'll probably get a lot more people seeing your question if it's in the main part of the Middleweight forum.
Since the battery holder part of this is basically beyond repair, the best possibility might be to bring it somewhere like Radio Shack and see if they have a new plastic 2-cell battery holder that will fit within your unit. Then you can wire the new battery holder to your switch and light, and it will operate.
This is a picture of one of my Murray built Astro Flite's battery tray that should be the same as the Spaceliner. The rear tray retainer spring loaded clip holds the battery in place and acts as the ground on the ground end of the tandem mounted batteries.
Thanks JD, great picture. I just bought an Astro Flite but unfortunately it's in New York and I live in Michigan. Probably won't see it until summer when I visit my daughter or she visits me.

So, if this bothers you, tell the seller to include the source of his information, or report him to eBay. I once had a furious eBay buyer contact me because he had bought an old radio from someone that had used an image of my very nice radio to sell their beat-up radio. When the buyer got the beat-up radio he searched Google Images, found the photo from my website that was used in the eBay listing, and it led him to me. I was able to convince him that I wasn't the seller, didn't know the seller, and hadn't pulled a 'bait and switch'. He said he was going to report the incident to eBay, but I never heard the outcome.
I am in process of restoring a chrome mens 1966 spaceliner. I wanted to know if a komet hub ever came on a 66 mens spaceliner? I don't know off hand what model it is. Meaning base or deluxe. Someone Know?
