Where in the heck do I find plastic power cord snap fit grommets?

[jerryjg]

I've looked everywhere. My plastic snap fit power cord grommet in this amp broke and I need to find another snap fit plastic grommet to hold the power cord into the chassis of the amp. All I see are rubber ones. Maybe they are called something else? What size to I need? I would buy an assortment .;

Most hardware stores will have a selection in common sizes.

i've bought some at Home Depot but they are not exactly the same... best to try the amp parts supply places for an exact one

While you are at it, find a new case for that amp, those tubes are in a bad position.

^ Thats an old homebrew Lafayette PA amp model 675. A tech in Austin named Jeff Williams converted it & voiced it to a Fender Pro, and it sounds great- I think it cost me something like 275.00 all total. He also did a nice job painting the old chasis;

. I've since put the smaller bottle 6l6's back in. and theere is more room. The tube sockets are at an angle thoguh, and that may be what made Startman say to get a different case.Interestingly , the amp has two rectifiers. One of the fist dual rectifiers haha- but not in the same way of course.
Thanks for the help everyone. I found the grommets(stran relifs) at Ace hardware. Ace is just as likely not to have waht I need though, but this time I was lucky & saved a few bucks from ordering online.
