Hi guys,

is there a part number for this? My grommet's totally gone, and I can seem to hunt down the right part or terminology for this piece!

thanks again!

I'm willing to bet it's the same one they used in the Daytonas, which two dealers told me it's on backorder, it'd be about $35, prepaid order, no guarantee that it'd ever come in. Luckily I just replaced it about 4 years ago on my old Daytona, so that was one of the parts I made sure to grab when I parted it out.

Maybe something from a later Jeep would be close enough?

Or even a newer model caravan?

That too. There's gotta be something close. I can't see them suddenly deciding that the wiper shaft or hole in the glass needs to be a different size after 15 years, and I don't see them not having anything at all for models that are still in production.

But then again, car companies do some wierd stuff.

But then again, car companies do some wierd stuff.Even if you have to trim it to fit or hog out the center to fit around the shaft. I agree, something should be close.

Well I haven't installed the grommet from the old Daytona into the new one yet*, so I can probably get some measurments if I can find a micrometer to borrow.



*Not exactly excited about cleaning out all the RTV the previous owner packed in there. :(

They have a grommet in the help section of most chains that will fit with alittle silcone spray and some luck.

Let me look thru my auto glass junk. I may have some grommets around you can have.

sweet man - that'd be great - we're coming into winter season, and there's a huge hole in the back of the van!!!
