40-155 tuner grommets
#1

Hello. Can anyone confirm that the 'hippo' grommets on the Renovated Radio site are the proper replacements required for the 40-155 tuner supports? I tried to go by the dimensions but mine are so badly distorted I cant be positive. Although, these look to me to be the best candidate.Thanks. Mike.

For reference, this is the item in question:

My apologies. I didnt realize there were more than one hippo grommet on that list. It's actually listed as the hippo tuner grommet rather than the tuner support and has the narrow mid section.

Ah my fault. Was just trying to include the link so people could give you input more easily.

You're actually referring to this one then:

That's it. Thank you very much for your reply and assistance. Being that the listing mentions the 40-180, which is close in model number to mine, I think I'll take a chance on them.
