Default 1 1/2" roll bar grommets and cross member

I have an older EM replica and am trying to get a second 1 1/2" roll bar made to be a mirror of the drivers side. I had bought the cross member and grommets from Finish Line Cobra Accessories about ten years ago. They are now doing 2" stuff now. I see over on the FFR forum, it's been discussed that Finish Line does not have any more 1 1/2" grommets and cross members. I want 2 matched sets of grommets. Preferably for 1/1/2" tubes and if possible bezels of polished Stainless Steel. I had thought about buying the 2" bezels and replacing the rubber stock for the smaller DIA. hole. The cross member is another point. the clamping brackets are the main parts, then the forged eye bolts . I have the high quality all thread but will need to find more heavy walled polished SS tubing to complete. Any body been over any of these areas lately and have a source?

Try Metro Molded Parts.
They make rubber and plastic
components for Cobras and
rollbar and quick Jack grommets
are listed.

Here's a link to their catalog.

Not what I'm looking for right now but I did see things for later. I liked the gravel guards (spats in different colors. Saved to my favorites under "Cobra parts"

Diana from Finish Line responded with they currently only have 2", No suggestions of where to go from here. I wonder if I can get some one locally to copy my old cross bar clamps?

The ACTION cross bar are custom made to roll bar tube diameter size and tube center to center. When I say grommet, I'm talking about the shiny metal bezels and the rubbery gaskets. I have found bezels made of chromed plastic, polished aluminum, and my preference polished Stainless Steel. A lot are 2" but I have one set 1 11/2"bezels an grommets but want two matching sets. May have to buy two sets of 2"bezels and replace the rubber with to 1 1/2" hole. I have one 35 year old blask painted 1 1/2" roll bar an intend to make and install a mirror roll bar complete with the roll bar cross member for shoulder strap anchors. Time will tell.
