Default Rubber Grommet can't find

Does anyone have a place to buy the grommets that seal where the wires enter the headlight bucket. I found some stepped grommets that will fit the hole but would like to think that someone makes correct ones. Its for my 74 911

Check your local FLAPS. They usually have kits that may fit

I finally found some here

http://www.kroonwireharnesses.com/in...product_id=158

The down side is 11 euro each x 8 and 75 euro for shipping. So about 175.00 for 8 grommets.
