i used a 24mm one, 25mm sticks out abit too much. never seen a 23mm one? halfords do a pack, 24mm,22mm and 19mm for 1.50, bit of a rip off for what you get but its only a quid 50 i suppose!

Doesn't stick out at the back as the grommit is flat, so looks virtually flush with the window.

Had a funny incident recently. Took my Ibiza to be washed by one of these polish car cleaning outfits. ;) When it came to hoovering the Boot, they obviously didnt understand where the latch was to open it, and pressed the Rubber Grommit thinking it was a button - it obviously dropped through and into the tailgate trim never to be found again (leaving a hole in the glass)! :D

I then promptly went out and had to explain how on the SEAT's the "S" badge in the tailgate actually doubles as the boot latch! :rolleyes:

yeh but it bubbles because imo the 25mm one is slightly too big thus sticking out. thats why i got a 24mm one then it sits more flush.
