Plastic grommets used for wire loom protection
« on: September 27, 2020, 08:15:31 PM »
I need help finding replacements for several plastic grommets. The first are the ones that are used to protect the headlight and parking light wire loom, where it comes through the inner-fender into the headlight bucket. Next, is the one at the bottom of the headlight bucket where the wire loom exits. This one contains the wires for the parking lights. Lastly, there is a hole inside the body, just behind the drivers door, where the wiring harness travels along from under the door sill, to the trunk. That hole also had a plastic grommet in the hole to protect the harness where it went through it. See pictures. The grommets are two different sizes, the larger one in the inner-fender and body, the smaller one in the headlight bucket. Anyone know where to source new ones? I've looked and can't seem to find them. Perhaps I don't know what they're called, plastic grommets to me. Thanks, Denny

I've got a couple of these, about 1-1/2" diameter just pulled off a 65 in a junkyard.  Where the headlight wire harness goes through the driver's side inner fender.  I have a few other sizes also.  I would think Randy (Midlife) would have a cache as well.

PM me if interested.  John

I know AMK has the grommets for the headlight bucket however they have a $30 minimum order if you buy direct.  https://www.amkproducts.com/product/b-10234/

Search their catalog and you can probably find the others too.

I believe Virginia Mustang or NPD both sell AMK products
