Nice one. I seem to have suffered “disappearing roof grommet” syndrome myself! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I just use a short strip of black insulating tape. Never comes off and very hard to spot.

If you're very picky, the originals are best as they sit flush with the black trim - the newer ones are a little bigger and are more noticeable, once fitted.
If you can find some old original ones, they'll likely have faded to grey, but a quick coat or two of Satin black will make them look like new. Cheers, Karl. |
