Hi all, is there a website that someone can recommend that sells this kind of thing? I want to bring a bunch of wires into the van from outside. The grommet needs to be pretty big, all the cables together will have a circumference of around a 1"-1 1/2" . It would also be super handy if the grommet had a 45 degree entrance from outside. Is there even a similar grommet used on our vans already?
Many thanks :D

Et cetera - and so forth, abbr. to etc.! (Latin derivation)
(I was wondering what a wiring loom ect was. :D )

I would look for through deck glands if you want it to be watertight also. Like these (40mm/1.5in.) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Index-Marine- ... 589b5319fc

Hi kev, many thanks. What size are they? By that I mean what size cable could you squeeze through the hole? If you can get your thumb through :lol: maybe two
