I'd try the camera stores for cubed foam. Or see
http://www.google.ca/search?q=pick+pluck+foam+cubes
But you're probably better to cut holes in slabs yourself. It's better
if you have a layer of closed cell foam on the bottom, then the densest
open-cell foam you can find. This makes it easier to cut out places and
assures boundary padding. You can even have several layers of this.
Cutting holes or slits yourself assures a tight fit.
