Windshield Wiper Motor

[vettedog72]

UK U says they don't have the grommet for the windshield cable to firewall. In fact they say they don't have a Jaguar part number for that grommet.

Where can you get a new grommet for the wiper cable on the XK150 roadsters?

measure the hole carefully, then check this site:

not knowing the exact grommet the XK-150 used, I assume it is the kind with a thin, flexible membrane in the center through which a wire harness is passed; those can be found as well, through generic grommet suppliers. There is a store in Orlando Florida called 'Skycraft'. They are a surplus aircraft hardware store where I have found parts that I never thought existed anymore, special grommets included. It's amazing where car manufacturers get their parts from.

Here is another possible source, depending on the size requirement.

The wiper grommet is specialized with a relatively long nose in the center. I have one on order. Hope its right when it comes in.
Thanks
