Bulkhead Grommets
There are 2 holes in the passenger footwell of the td5 bulkhead. I understand 1 is for aircon pipes. Seeing as ive fitted a V8 and dont have aircon im looking to blank them up with grommets. Im told they are LR grommets but dont know what the part numbers are. Dont even know what size they are as ive misplaced my verniers. Any help would be appreciated.

I just taped mine up, but I'd be interested in some grommets too. The problem will be that the genuine grommets have an aperture in them for the pipes, so they won't really solve the problem. Maybe just some rubber bungs is the best solution. 2005 Td5 | 90 Station Wagon | Tonga Green

Measure the hole and you could always stick a 'skin top' gland in the hole with a cut piece of cable running through it. Any future modifications just slacken it off and remove the piece of cable and you've a ready prepared gland to run what ever you wish through it. Thumbs Up

What K9F mentions is a good solution. They are great for that sort of thing.. $W33T $0U7H3RN $UG4R

I also found missing grommets/wet behind mat when fitting a noise killer kit to my TD5.Asked at main dealers(Guy Salmon)but they could only locate the Defender grommet page which said the 2"-50mm one is not available so i ended up getting a series of blanking grommets off E-bay,that was one leak sorted,you've just got to love them.
