Title: Bulkhead grommets
Post by: paul_f on June 18, 2009, 09:11:29 PM
Does anyone know anywhere that sells bulkhead grommets to run wiring looms through?  I want something that is relatively well sealed to prevent smells coming into the cabin.

Vehicle wiring products and car builder solutions don't seem to have anything

VWP used to do all sorts of grommets.

They do a lot of grommets, but nothing big enough (just like in the wiring lab at work).  I want one like on production cars for taking thick harnesses through.  We tend to only have old engine looms at work so haven't managed to find anything yet

I got these from ebay

I'll use a leather punch to open the up so the flexi tube fits through
