For the hole where the high vis mast fits in.

Thanks

Post by: pso-buzz on 25, October, 2012 - 20:55:08: Ah right! That's a pain isn't it!!

Are you looking for two or one?

Bit of a shame if a few of us on here are looking outfit them as we will be bidding against each other.

If you only need one and two come up we should try and bid on them and split them.

Cheers

Simon

That would be good, but I need two :(. Both of mine were missing when I bought my C5.

LOL - only if they were mine ;) ;)

Post by: Dave.76 on 28, October, 2012 - 19:02:59: I'd noticed those on ebay too. I can't belive they are up to £9.50 :o already with nearly six days still to go. I'm sure they are going to be well out of my price range by the time the bidding finishes.
Title: Re: Rubber Grommet thing for the Mast
Post by: kamilb1998 on 28, October, 2012 - 19:17:45: I can safely say I will not be increasing my bid anymore now. :( Wasn't expecting them to reach that much especially with 6 days to go.
Title: Re: Rubber Grommet thing for the Mast
Post by: pso-buzz on 28, October, 2012 - 19:26:57: Shows how rare they are. It would be worth making them if you could and selling them for about £5-7 each.

I would buy them.
Title: Re: Rubber Grommet thing for the Mast
Post by: Lancealot on 28, October, 2012 - 20:47:44: If someone makes them I need 3 sets if the price is right.

Post by: kamilb1998 on 03, November, 2012 - 12:27:37: Auction ends tonight - be interesting to see what they go for. I may persuade myself to increase my bid.
Title: Re: Rubber Grommet thing for the Mast
Post by: pso-buzz on 03, November, 2012 - 13:05:14: Damn that's a shame, I would like these too.

We are gonna be bidding against each other!!
Title: Re: Rubber Grommet thing for the Mast
Post by: kamilb1998 on 03, November, 2012 - 17:10:55: :o

£18.50! I thought I had no chance of being outbid at £15!

So, who got them
Title: Re: Rubber Grommet thing for the Mast
Post by: Pep on 03, November, 2012 - 17:31:05: Wasn't me, I got home too late to bid but would have chanced £20 could have gone either way

Post by: Phoenix on 03, November, 2012 - 17:36:52: Hi all,

I sold them (wont say who to, that's up to them) but was happy with the price, as I nearly chucked them away when having a clear-out, I brought a hi-vis mast and the seller included them, but I already had a pair, they are in great condition too.
Title: Re: Rubber Grommet thing for the Mast
Post by: pso-buzz on 03, November, 2012 - 18:54:06: Hello

I bought them, didnt really want to spend that much but they seem quite rare!

Simon
Title: Re: Rubber Grommet thing for the Mast
Post by: pso-buzz on 03, November, 2012 - 19:04:49: Damn, if you buy the high vis mast do you get a set of these??
Title: Re: Rubber Grommet thing for the Mast
Post by: Phoenix on 03, November, 2012 - 19:06:30: Well when I got mine they included them, but I was not expecting to get them.
Title: Re: Rubber Grommet thing for the Mast
Post by: radiomarty on 03, November, 2012 - 19:19:45: The grommets were supplied as a standard item on all c5 - sadly if you didn't buy the mast they tended to pop off and get lost - hence they are quite hard to find now :(
Title: Re: Rubber Grommet thing for the Mast
Post by: Dave.76 on 03, November, 2012 - 23:14:58: Wow it just shows never throw anything away. put it on ebay instead!
