Rubber Grommet 8x14x7
Restore the original fit, protection and reliability of your
Porsche with this OE Match Rubber Grommet (8x14x7mm), designed for a variety of applications on selected Porsche
911 models. Manufactured to original equipment specifications, this
versatile rubber grommet provides secure mounting, vibration isolation and
protection where cables and pipes pass through body panels or mounting
brackets.

This OE Match grommet is used in several factory
applications, including:
- Brake master cylinder feed and return pipes.
- Engine lid release cable (1974–1977).
- Fuel flap release cable (1987–1989 models fitted with the plastic fuel expansion bowl).
Although small, this rubber grommet plays an important role in protecting components from wear, vibration and damage while helping maintain factory-quality fitment.
What Does the Rubber Grommet Do?
The rubber grommet provides a protective and cushioned interface between the vehicle body and cables or pipework.
Depending on its installation location, it performs several
important functions:
- Supports brake master cylinder feed and return pipes.
- Protects hydraulic pipes from chafing against metal panels.
- Supports the engine lid release cable.
- Guides and protects the fuel flap release cable.
- Prevents vibration and rattles.
- Eliminates metal-to-metal contact.
- Helps reduce wear caused by continual movement.
By securely locating these components, the grommet contributes to long-term reliability throughout the vehicle.
Why Do Rubber Grommets Fail?
Rubber components naturally age and deteriorate over time
through constant exposure to heat, vibration and environmental conditions.
Common causes of failure include:
- Age-related hardening.
- Cracking and splitting.
- Compression causing loss of elasticity.
- Oil, grease or brake fluid contamination.
- UV and ozone exposure.
- General wear after years of service.
Once the rubber loses its flexibility, it can no longer properly support or protect the cables and pipework, increasing the risk of wear and vibration.
When Should the Rubber Grommet Be Replaced?
Replacement is recommended whenever the surrounding
components are removed or serviced, or if you notice:
Cracked
or perished rubber.
- Loose cables or pipework.
- Flattened or compressed grommets.
- Signs of cable or pipe chafing.
- Missing or damaged grommets.
- During restoration or preventative maintenance.
Replacing worn rubber grommets is an inexpensive way to restore factory fitment while protecting valuable cables and hydraulic components from premature wear.

OEMatch Wiper Motor — Fit, Function, Confidence
Wiper motors convert electrical input into the mechanical motion that sweeps the blades across the windscreen. OEMatch supplies a selection of replacement units for Porsche models, covering classic and modern applications and chosen to match the original mounting, electrical interface and service expectations.
Available Types
- Replacement wiper motors for classic and modern Porsche models
Understanding OEMatch Wiper Motor
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts are made by the same company that produced your Porsche’s original wiper motor. OE (Original Equipment) refers to parts matching original specifications for the wiper motor and may be supplied by alternative manufacturers. Aftermarket parts offer alternative options, sometimes with enhanced features or better value. OEMatch supplies non-OEM wiper motor engineered as direct-fit alternatives to OEM parts, made to original-spec dimensions and tolerances for Porsche models.
The wiper motor sits beneath the windscreen cowl and drives the linkage that moves the arms and blades. When you select a speed or intermittent wipe, the motor and its internal gearing provide the controlled motion and torque required to clear water, snow or debris. Proper electrical connection, gearing condition and freedom of movement in the linkage are all important for dependable operation. OEMatch focuses on wiper motor items selected for Porsche applications.
Benefits Include
- Restores effective windscreen clearing in wet or soiled conditions
- Supports intermittent and variable wiping modes where fitted
- Reduces excessive load on the linkage and related components
Why Wiper Motor Wear and Fail
- Electrical faults such as poor connections, corroded terminals or blown fuses
- Wear to brushes, bearings or internal gears that reduces torque
- Stiff, seized or damaged linkages and pivot points that overload the motor
The Importance of Replacing with OEMatch Wiper Motor
Maintaining a serviceable wiper motor directly affects visibility and safety in adverse weather and is commonly reviewed at inspection or MOT checks. Replacing a worn or intermittent motor restores reliable clearing of the windscreen, helps protect the linkage and arms from secondary damage, and supports the safe operation of Porsche models in everyday and seasonal conditions.
Advantages
- Direct-fit replacements engineered to match original dimensions and tolerances
- Selected for Porsche applications by OEMatch to help match part references and electrical interfaces
- Made to original-spec dimensions where applicable to support consistent operation
Support & Advice
These items affect safety-critical systems. Installation should be carried out by a qualified technician following model-specific procedures and torque settings. Use calibrated tools and new fasteners where specified. If you are unsure about hidden sensors, wiring or required recalibration, seek professional fitting.
