They would do in-a-pinch but had to cut off the tip end so the coax could go through them and then would have to glue them in <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">place<\/strong> as they would not have the back <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">side<\/strong> to hold it in place&#8230; only choice on the notice I had. So I got two, cut off the back and then proceeded to get the coax through the &#8220;under-size&#8221; hole&#8230; that was a struggle in its own <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">right<\/strong> but with a little help of lube, I got <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">one<\/strong> on&#8230; At this point&#8230; I forgot to see if the nut and washer to hold the antenna on would slip over&#8230; guess what &#8211; no way. So I had to take the grommet off, slip off the nut and washer, put the antenna on the mount then push the grommet back on the coax and then the coax through a hole I had carefully drilled in the <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">side<\/strong> of the motor <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">home<\/strong> to <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">run<\/strong> the coax in&#8230; finally ever a lot of struggle I got it in <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">place<\/strong> and <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">run<\/strong> through &#8211; then to put <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">one<\/strong> on the other <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">side<\/strong> to seal up both&#8230; used some &#8220;goop&#8221; marine glue to make sure the hole would be sealed water tight for a long time&#8230; push the two grommets in as far as I could to hold tight on both sides of the wall&#8230;
