Refills for Auto Serv Kleenex dispenser

My '52 came with an older-style Auto Serv tissue dispenser - the kind that "rocks forward" to dispense out the top. Uses a 10" x 4 3/4" by 2" tissue box.

Haven't found any recent tissue boxes that size!

The old, empty box I do have is pretty dilapidated, so just refilling the old, dusty, torn-up box isn't a great option.

What do y'all do? Cram a commercial tissue box into the holder? Tap a super-secret stash of OEM Kleenex boxes? Just toss a soft-pack in the holder and run with it?

Closest thing I've found, just looking at package dimensions, is called "Kleenex Spacesaver". Looks to be 9.9" x 4.9" by about 1 3/4", which MIGHT work, even if it sticks out the rear a little, and leaves a gap at the top. Trouble is, the smallest I find are 5-packs, so if it's not right...Well, I suppose we'll always have use for facial tissues.

Anyone have any other (good?) alternatives?
 
can you find tissue bigger size than your dispenser, size them down with scissors. i would put blue shop towels instead and keep Kleenex on separate box.
 
I have found Kleenex in 9" x 4 3/4" boxes in units at Timeshare Resorts. They are probably in hotels as well.
I have not tried them in my dispenser yet, but I think they should fit even if they are a bit short.

I currently am using a box that I cut down. Not Kleenex, just something I bought at Costco.
