I am looking at central locking kits, mostly on ebay, and they dont come with the rubber door grommets to hide/protect the wiring running between the vehicle and the door. Seems strange to me not to provide it.

Anybody know where to buy them?

Any of the automotive parts stores will be able to supply the grommets. I put most of my wiring into convoluted, split tube but door wiring can often be better in PVC tube(clear hose) like you'll find at the hardware.
So many delays to getting my MB back in order with 993cc & 5 speed transaxle... neighbor issue gone, donor shell up on rotisserie, new sheds on the way.... another project also..

I have searched Jaycars site. The part number quoted is not what I am after.

Something more like this: http://www.keepitcleanwiring.com/catalog/details/DLOOM

Those rubber sleeves are actually in the central locking kits. The only thing I don't like about them is they actually start breaking down and become brittle and fall apart. When I do personal cars I use Hyundai excel front door grommets. They are cheep from the wreckers and they last a lot longer. All you have to do is use a hole saw to drill the holes. They also look factory.

I used Matiz ones, just drilled the holes with a hole saw.
