( No real suprise there!) i have spoken to numerous people regarding getting new ones and hit dead ends. rare spares, scotts vintage rubbers, early ford and holden are among just a few people that have told me no. i am about to give up and accept the fact that there may be mone new around but thought that i would just put a post in here to see if anyone has some new or knows where i can get some new? anything would be fantastic thanks for your time!

Then try for a generic gromet from either fastener shop, clark rubber or from one of the elecrtonic component suppliers like farnell or radio spares. one other opt
