Are rubber radiator grommets available?

[jchochole]

Has anyone found the rubber radiator shell grommets available over the counter at retailers? I am placing an order but wanted to see if I can buy those locally first.

Thanks,
Jim

I would say no. You may be able to retrofit something, but I use old pieces of tire tube.Model A Vendors do sell the kits.

Gary- how do you use old tire tubes?

Thanks Bob- I know I can always order them but my goal, for this item, is to shop locally. I wish I had a Tractor Supply or McMaster local.

I thought it was for the hold down for radiator! Not grommets. My mistake for the year!

Follow-up, I hit Home Depot and found neoprene grommets for about $2, they fit the headlight holes pretty well!

I have found that most suppliers sell Radiator grommets in sets of 3 either 28/29 or 30/31. The fit and work well. Try Mikes Affordable.
Over the counter grommets would be doubtful.
