Just bought a Vinwiring loom and was wondering what root the dash wiring should take. There are 3 holes in the front parcel tray. Should all the 3 wiring branch go through the larger centre whole or should they be split the utilise the remaining smaller outer holes for the lesser wires.

All wiring should go through the central hole - nothing in the other holes.

Where can I buy the holey grommet from and/or what is the part number.

My 850 book has it as 3H1457 (GROMMET 1-3/8 x 3/4).

I'd like to know where to get one of those too - can't find anyone selling that size.

And realise the clubman minis had a large diameter grommet than round nose.

Hello All,
I'm not sure of the dimensions, but would Lucas grommet #C555 be close?
Regards,
Glen

I bought from a local rubber goods supplier based on size.

So the grommet is 35mm x 19mm, is that a correct calculation?

I found something that worked from Clark rubber. I think it was a blank that I cut a x in

Ah, I see Oscar beat me to it.

Thanks Rod.
I found they list 15728 as 34.5mm X 20mm, which is close to the panel hole size. When you search their site, computer says "Nah" - as in "no record".

No wuks Bill. They are available mate. You just have to blunder around a bit :lol:

I'm glad I found this listing as I need a handful of varying sizes for a Pulsar GTIR project I'm playing with atm!

I think I've found where I can get the right sized grommet for my parcel shelf wiring loom hole. The hole is 35mm in diameter and Clark Rubber chart above shows a thin grommet Item no. 726 which appears to have all the right measurements. Thank you all for your input.

You're a better web blunderer than me Oscar. Still no listing from Clark Rubber.
If I have to click and collect at Geelong from Sydney, I might need 36 months of interest free payments.
