Bulk Head Grommet

PostPost by: carrierdave » Wed Apr 02, 2008 1:09 pm

Hi all,
Has anyone located a suitable bulk head grommet for the steering rack? At the moment I have used an old piece of 2mm thick rubber which i have cut it to fit between the old plate and the bulk head (not ideal) ? Is there a better way of doing this?

Thanks

I recently bought this from Canley to do the job - I haven't fitted it yet so it may need trimming but it only cost ?1.69!!

I believe this is the same part that Richard mentioned, listed at Rimmerbros:

Thanks for that; I never gave Canleys a thought. It seems a shame to spend just ?1.69; I'll have to see what else I could use from them.

I got hold of one of there wider radiators last year - all I had to do was change the top outlet so that it pointed the right way. A little application of heat to the solder and it turned round very easily.

Turned out to be a really cheap option.
