hood latch lever gromet

I could use a couple of the inserts that go in the latch support hole, so the latch lever don't rattle.
Not sure if ace hardware would have that. or someone repose them. i would think they are made of nylon, but not sure as i don't have one too see. thanx

 

They were rubber on the Buicks.

I have them - rubber grommets of the appropriate size. But....you should be able to source locally (for less $ considering cost + shipping) as you mention - Ace Hardware, etc.

 

Great thanx fellas

 

Patton,

Were you able to find grommets with the reduced hole diameter like the originals were?

Thanks, Matt

 

Just replaced mine after 23 years, here's what you need, I have the other one in this bag, if you need let me know with an address.

Mike,

The originals had a smaller ID. I have one on a NOS latch/bracket, but, time has not been nice to it. I'll post pictures if I can find the part.

 

Thanks Matt, do you know what ID is? Mine is a 1971 GS and I wouldn't want Duane to deduct next time I see him! The one I have worked, so I'm happy.

 

Not sure.

 

I made a few out of a rubber hose and grinder.
