I'm looking for 1 or 2 of the grommet like thing that goes in the front door at the door lock button (at the window sill). Does anyone have any suggestions on where I can get one or two of them?

Thanks a bunch. I would have never guessed that they are around and available.

I will try to better at searching before posting.

If you know someone with a 3D printer, They can copy and print one or two for ya.
I asked a coworker make a couple for one of my 67 beetles a few years back. They're still hanging in the doors snuggly.
