Shimano Exage brake hoods?

I have some nice Shimano SLR Exage brake levers that I really like but the hoods are getting a bit worn. I was wondering if anyone knows of the 600 series hoods would fit?

those are the hoods i just threw on my mid 1980's 600 levers.
they will " work ", for now and as long as they have to, but they aren't tight enough, and i really wish i had nice gum hoods instead of black too ...
can't help with your question specifically though, sorry .

I think the 105 hoods fit. FWIW, I like some Exage hoods better. They were thicker and had some ridges you don't alway see on those types of hoods.
