3046moparcoupe Posted February 5, 2017 Report Share Posted February 5, 2017 I've heard of other ways to skin this cat (like using valve stems, etc), anyway - I just wanted to share that ebay seller "fmmpar" has headliner bow grommets available for $4.95 a pair....shipping is $2.67. The full description in ebay is ( 1940 41 42 46 47 48-54 Plymouth Dodge DeSoto Chrysler HEADLINER BOW GROMMET Pair ). I went ahead and bought a set for our project, as they don't look to be old dried out grommets, so we'll see.....this seller has a 99.8 positive feedback rating and does offer returns and refunds.

bobostski Posted February 5, 2017 Report Share Posted February 5, 2017 I went to the hardware store and found grommets in the plumbing department that were extremely close to the originals. These were used to seal faucets and only about 50 cents each. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertKB Posted February 5, 2017 Report Share Posted February 5, 2017 (edited) Thanks for the heads up. I bought 10 (5 pairs) for my 1951 Dodge D39 business coupe project. Maybe a bit pricey but you gotta pay to play and I have never seen these anywhere before. Edited February 5, 2017 by RobertKB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldguy48 Posted February 5, 2017 Report Share Posted February 5, 2017 I purchased headliner bow grommets for my P15 from McMaster-Carr. Can't recall the stock number, but they were a very close match to the originals, and worked well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plymouthy Adams Posted February 5, 2017 Report Share Posted February 5, 2017 similar experience here, took an original and compared to what was available off the shelf at local supply...went with them..it is often just a question of what are you comfortable with using... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
