Was just tidying up and lifted the carpets. My bungs are crumbled. Anyone have a link for me to buy some more please.

Local motor factor should be able to help. It's only a rubber grommet, just need the diameter.

It is, but.... most grommets are made to go into metal panels which tend to be a lot thinner than a fibreglass TVR floor!

Most car spare shops/motor factors have something like this these days, may find a pack of something that fits?

True. Although the bungs in Samy are standard items friction fitted in the hole rather than the lip holding it in place. I've also sealed them in with some silicone.
