cheers for the link mate, although the one I'm after is a generic blanking grommet. Not a Toyota item.

don't use the 100ft aerial so want a blanking grommet to fit in its place.

Cheers Rob! Second question, what bolts you use for your SA3R Advans? I tried using the bolts off my wolfrace wheels but I can't get a socket attachment down the side to screw them on. Cheers

Cheers fella Is the Hex key you get unique? or do I need 16 nuts + hex key and a set of locking nuts on top?
Re: [Mk2] [Generic] What size grommet fits the aerial hole *snug fit*?
The aerial hole is eliptical, a grommet is never going to look great and is removable by scumbags with fireworks beware...
Re: [Mk2] [Generic] What size grommet fits the aerial hole *snug fit*?
the hex key is not unique so if you want to use locking nuts you could get 16 plus locking nuts but i didnt i just went with the 20 as how many people will have a hex key and if there serious enough on knicking them locking nuts dont stop anyone

That is a good point, never thought of that one

Another fair point as a local garage was able to remove my wheels even though I left the locking key at home!
