Rubber Grommets

Hey, I'm after the following rubber grommets as fitted to the rear of a Mk2 Escort. Does anyone know someone that reproduces these or has some NOS lying around?
Cheers

    The various holes behind the bumper. However, that's the way I got it when I bought it 13 years ago, they may not be the "correct" type for that location. I'm also after the two plastic plugs on the boot floor

    I noticed in the latest Retro Ford mag their product section featured your rubbers and spoilers Peter.
    Congrats on getting the supply deal with Burtons and for getting in and making these hard to find bits for the old Escorts.

    The mag was featuring the Burton ones, which I assumed were yours seeing as just up there you said you were supplying Burtons. Or have I got it all wrong?
    Here's a scan of that page. Are those your ones Peter?

    Yes, these products are definitely manufactured by us.
     
    Burton's has obviously dropped the Peter Lytton branding off which is a concern and creating confusion with purchasers.
