Does anyone have a source for the bonnet release grommets where the bonnet release passes through the bulkhead. They are a somewhat unusual size with ~15mm panel hole and ~5mm through hole. None of the usual suppliers carry grommets of these dimensions. Anyone?

Thanks all

Might be worth asking the dimensions?

These look handy but need a bigger holescratchchin

Just came across this when looking for something else. This fits a 3/4" hole so may be too big but they seem to have quite a few others so something might fit!

Got mine from an electrical wholesaler. Cannot remember the size, but they did the job.

Thanks to all for the suggestions, after much surfing I've found the answer. For those interested it's a brake pipe grommet from a VW bay window camper. See : http://www.vwheritage.com/vw_spares_Grommet-brake-...

Thanks
