I am finding old dried out grommets all over the place. Which had me thinking do they come in a kit. or do you need to find them individually?
And if you do need to find them individually would anyone have a list of all of them that you need. I tried searching on this topic but I guess I'm not putting the right thing in the search.

Eagle, I recall suggesting this once to you recently. Place your real first name and the year model of your jeep in your signature element found in your profile. This way we will always know which jeep you have and who you are.

I don't recall any grommet lists. If you will use the alphabetical index at the back of the parts manual you will find Grommet and each location for a grommet listed below it. Then visit that page for each entry and gather up the part number. Or just download one of many vendor grommet catalogs and order what you need by size.

Lowe's hardware store has at least two size grommets for the firewall,
1-1/8 od (hole in firewall) x 23/32 id, and 1-1/8 od x 5/8 id.

I split the first one, but after putting it in I think they will go in
without doing so.

At the very least buy the 5/8 jobs and protect your wire from the
sharp edges on the dash, and your paint from the e-brake cable.

FYI,
These grommets at Lowes are Hillman. Any hardware or auto
parts store carrying Hillman stuff probably has them.

Some of the military parts vendors sell a grommet kit that includes many of the required grommets.
