    68 Radiator Support Harness/Hose Grommet Question

    I have what I beleve is an be an original harness/hose grommet for a 68. I just don't remember what size the opening is that it fits into. This measures 15/16" across the opening. I was wondering if someone could measure the opening in ther support or if they knew for certin off hand what it was. For some reason I think that the opening is larger.

    Thanks in advance,
    Rich

    The rough inside dia on the grommet on my 68 is 1-3/8th. I can't measure the actual core support hole with the gromment in place but in the K66 section of the AIM the hole is called out as being 1-33/64 dia.

      Rich,

      Your dimension on the pictured grommet sounds small. I don't think the headlight connectors would pass through a 15/16" opening.

        Rich, the 1 3/8 looks correct. On mine the TI harness goes through the bottom hole with grommet and the headlight and vacuum lines go through the top whole with grommet. When it warms up I can give you an exact measurement.
