Hi Oz,
If there's a Clarke Rubber outlet on the Gold Coast, they are a good source; lot's of grommets, general seals and car-specific seals.

I buy ~~all~~ most of my rubbers there.

Clarke rubber has generic rubber grommets etc...

You will need the size of the hole or the old grommets etc

or just buy a heap of sizes... [which I did]
