Pan Supports

[kycamper]

Sooooo..... I only have had my  21 RBS less than one year, and I already wore out about two of those little rubber thingies on the pan supports of the Dometic SMEV stove. I, of course, emailed Don at Livinlite who responded that these were warrantied by Dometic, and gave me a telephone number. Called Dometic today. These grommets come in packages of 8. I wanted a couple under warranty and also wanted to purchase some as " back up" knowing they seem to wear out way too fast. These little rubber grommets, I was told by the friendly Dometic lady, would cost me only $45.00 ( didn't ask about the shipping ) but figured I could have them for a mere.....$65.00 total. If I were allowed, I would print what I was thinking when I told her to forget it. I sent an e-mail to a vendor in England who wants 1.2 pounds EACH, plus shipping. I would actually order them, IF they sell to individuals. Hope y'all don't need any of these in the near future.....or ....Maybe I have some to sell you...!!!!

How are they different than regular hardware store rubber grommets? Are the dimensions weird, or is it some special high-temperature material? How about a high-temperature grommet?:
