have just had my engine bay painted and would like to get some new grommets to replace the old dried up and cracked ones..

particulary the heater hose, brake line, and indicator wiring grommets (both guard repeaters and front bumper indicater/park light one)

anyone know if they are still available new?

You can get most of them from a rubber supplyer. Not very expencive, just measure the hole and tell them what you need and in what style!

Umm..

The N14 Pulsar heater hose grommets are good for 1200s.

I can generally find 120Y ones still in good condition at the wreckers for the brakes and blinker light grommets.

You need to spend some time at the wreckers.

There is good main loom grommets on the drivers side inner guard of hyundai excels if my memory serves me right. Although it might have been N12 Pulsars (holden astras).

There is a mob over here called Clarke Rubber. they do anything and everything rubber. Mats, tubing, inflateable things,foam etc Not a automotive supplier, but has some auto parts like grommets, door seals etc.

They had heaps of differnt sizes and styles. And i got some foam and vynal by the meter for door trims etc while i was there!

Nissan still do the heater grommets, bonnet bump stops, wiper spindle boots and door stops. They are quite cheap too at around $5 each. Although the brake line and indicator wiring ones are NLA, last time I checked.
