Seat Cordoba boot grommet

    Anyone know where I might be able to get a boot grommet for a 95 Cordoba? It might have a part similar with equivalent Ibiza's or Polo's.

    It's an oval grommet that exits the boot space, and carries the electrical cable to the boot lid for number plate and fog lights. The centre of the grommet has a tubular part, I reckon for helping with the seal against the cable.

    I had done a silicone repair on it maybe 5 or 6 years ago to fix a small leak, but since then, the grommet has become more brittle, and probably won't last long with another silicone repair. I'll attempt with the silicone to keep it sealed as good as I can, but ultimately, it'll need a new grommet.

    Car just passed it's NCT no bother, so hoping to keep it dry for another couple of years. The metal hole that the grommet sits into is in good condition. It really needs to be sorted as the grommet is placed in the channel which directs rainwater off the back of the car.

    Any help sourcing the part, or any other advice to keep it dry in the meantime appreciated.

    Seat main dealer?
    Or just use more silicone.

    Ask dealer for part number, buy on ebay.
