Where can I find a grommet?

Could someone steer me in the direction to locate just one grommet for the soft top? The Thing Shop is out of stock for at least a month and Things Unlimited does not carry them. Thanks. BTW, I have a 73 with 1915, 9 to 1 compression, Kadrons, factory 4.62 r&p and ZF limited slip.

181 sorry about the gromet. Can`t help. Have you tried the list at topica? Are you a member?
Have never heard of this R&P ratio before. Very interesting. What is cruising speed on the highway or are you strictly off-road?
Good luck and keep posting. Bob Ingman

The 4.62 r&p came from a vw out of southeast asia according to weddle engineering (where I purchased it). Actually it is perfect for highway cruising with the 27X8.5X14 BFG All Terrains I have on. I am not familiar with topica...please elaborate. Thanks.

things@topica.com is an email group. You go to topica then sports and recreation then automotive then volkswagen then things and join the group. You`ll get about 20-25 emails a day from the group. everyone on the list gets the same emails. Is any of this making sense. Its late. Bob Ingman
