I just ordered a set of 914rubber eyebrow grommets... is there a trick or tool for installing these things without a) piercing them with a screwdriver, or b) screaming words that young children shouldn't hear?
Also, how on earth do you get enough leverage to install the one that's inside the fender? |

Wrap some dental floss in the groove of the gromett. Thread the floss through the hole. Pull on it and it will work the lip through. And a little vasoline on the hole
