Re: Grommet fresh air door
I didn't have ac on my 68 but to seal the lower vent doors I got a used semi truck tire inner tube from the local tire shop. They gave it to me. Just cut out a pattern and glued into place with contact cement glue. Zero money spent.

Re: Grommet fresh air door
The grommet I’m looking for is for fresh air door for ac located between cowl and glove box

Or are you asking about the vent in the passenger side kick panel, below & to the right of the glove box?

Re: Grommet fresh air door
OK, gotcha. Not sure where you might find one. Sounds like you are describing the off-white nylon piece pictured below, to the left of the spring. Not a great pic of that grommet but it's what I was able to find.

Re: Grommet fresh air door
Just a guess, it might not be available. If not, look for a parts truck in a junkyard.

Re: Grommet fresh air door
Looks like a part easy enough to fab with a nylon hunk from ACE?

Re: Grommet fresh air door
Would not call that a grommet. See it as a bushing for fresh air cowl flap. It is pictured. This is not reproduced as far as I know. I managed to get this one off the parts forum several years back for my A/C conversion. Become a member and ask in the parts forum. Maybe contact Classic Bowties. He has a lot of hard to get parts.
