Lots of engine bay refinishing threads recently. Has anyone replaced the rubber grommets in the right engine shelf (passenger side)? The ones I need are the oblong gas line grommets and the round clear plastic vent tube grommet. These were brittle in my case and crumbled during removal.

If they are NLA I wonder if standard round grommets can be made to work?

Thanks,

Mike

Great question Mike.

I have never tried to purchase them from Porsche... but manybe somebody has and will chime in.

In my "Never throw anything away".....rubber section, I may have decent used ones. If you'll settle for "used" I can root around to see.

JP,

Used but re-usable would be fine with me. The oblong gas line grommets are the two I really need.

Thanks,

Mike

I gots mine new from AJUSA.

I think I got a spare pair, I can check if ya want.

There is another pair for the front in some cars. I so you may want 4.

While we are on the subject any body know where to get the alt. wire grommet? One of my two is in good shape the other one is shot.

Thanks

I bought some of those gas line grommets from Pelican 3-4 years ago. Find a part number and call them...

the brake line grommets from the front (where lines go down to the MC) are the same.
they're also the same (brake line) from a early 911 ...

i got 'em used for next to nothing,

I bought a set of grommetts for the brake lines that go from the reservoir down thru the body up front.I carried an old AA catalog to my local Porsche dealer,and it was no problem.
I'm not sure if their the same but they look pretty close.
If I remember,they were only 2 or 3 dollars apiece.

I'll order a handfull.

Thanks again.
