Grommets ...

#1 Post by Dolly Bird » Tue Jun 27, 2006 2:02 pm

Does anybody know where I can source some rubber grommets in good condition for my floor pans (the front footwells in particular)? Mine have seen much better days, which means that on occasion I do get rather a wet bottom<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START : --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/ohwell.gif ALT=":"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> This will, in all probability, eventually lead to saggy bits and holes where I don't want them<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :eek --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/eek.gif ALT=":eek"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

I personally have removed mine as they fell to bits. Why block up a perfectly good drain hole if it gets wet in there? If you still want grommets many a motor factor sells them at a very reasonable price. Just measure the appropriate hole first.

I've often wondered about taking them out myself, as the water seems to find its way in, but not out again. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START : --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/ohwell.gif ALT=":"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> The same goes for the grommets in the cills! Leave in or take out is the quandry. What does everyone else do?
