trying to find...

[Peetee]

The name of the square rubber bung that fits into a hole in the floor on the passenger side footwell (on the sloping bit).I need to order a replacement from a well know parts supplier in the south east ( ) and have searched in vain under grommet, bung, plug etc etc.

blanker??

Well really!
I've been called some names un my time but......

Are you sure it is rubber?
I've got a feeling that it's tar soaked cardboard or something similar stuck over the hole where a pedal would go through on a LHD car.
As there is nothing under there to be serviced a rubber bung would be an extravagance.

Hi

Are you refering to the dip switch hole for left hand drive which has a steel blanking plate and rubber washer?

The hole is shown here



This is where BMC part number ADA 2835 - plate dipper switch hole blanking and seal ADA 2836 goes - its held in place with two screws above and below the hole??

There is a card square trim stuch on with bitumen just above which you can also see in the pic and thats the type MarkyB is refering to.

I need the same part, Try cutting 2 pieces of rubber, maybe an 1/8'' thick and slightly bigger all round than the square hole, glued ( super glue) back to back but not around the last bit of the perimeter. This will give you a home made grommet for the hole?

OK, seems the regular seal is a bit of bitumen stuff then. I'm sure I had a rubber bung on a previous car though. Might have been a parts bin special I suppose.
Cheers.
