Hybrid_From_Hell Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Righty Ho Needs some Grommets can't seem to find what I need anywhere, looked at VWP, Demon Tweeks, Polevolt etc. Gromet type is to fill say a 30mm Hole (OD) but to have a small say 4-6mm ID type Anyone know where I can get these ?

landrover598 Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Get a blanking gromet from Maplins or Halfrauds for example, and drill a hole to suit your size wires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BogMonster Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 VWP have big blanking grommets, we got a load from there a while back for work. You could either drill a hole, or drill an oversize hole in the big grommet and fit a small grommet in the middle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have thought of that but there are these damned things out there but finding them Had a look on ebay, and RS - ziltch Had a look at my parts book, there are some but unsure of sizes, if nothing else comes up will prob try a selection and see if any are the jobbies Nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmgemini Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Scrappy. Look for a Metro. Rear quarter inside the boot where the rear light wires go throuigh. That's where I get mine fron. Quite soft as well. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
