Lots of them will stretch. If you warm it up so it's pliable you may be able to use one of those you can find.

whoa, have you seen my truck? Leather is way too fancy for it but thanks, I went and bought a $6 cheapo at Walmart and attempted to stretch it, didn't work, try heating it with a heat gun-nope, tried heating it in the oven, it snapped, so some clear duct tape over the broken ends and some black electrical tape over that and all but 4" is covered, it's cheesy but beats the hell out of that cracked, skinny, hard plastic.
