Door Grommet's DIY door panels
Posted: Mon Aug 02, 2010 5:40 pm
Hi all,
I got some grommets which are in two pieces, going to try to have my son take a pic so we can post. These are the replacements for around the door release handle in the door panel on my '76.
I have no clue how to install these, it almost looks like they should be pressed together....but I don't want to go bending them unless I'm sure.
One side is just a disc with "teeth" on the inner side. the other side is a disc with a raised portion which fits perfectly inside the previously described part. It appears one should go on each side of the panel, and I'm assuming the teeth grip the material on the panel facing the inside of the car....but it's just a guess.....
Any ideas or clues would be MUCH appreciated!!
Thanks,
Peter.
