ricktate Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Derrick my son has some Forte I and one of the little rubber grommets that holds the grill on is missing. Has anyone had any luck finding these ?? I have not looked yet but thought I would throw this out to see. They look like something I have seen somewhere before but cant figure it out. I will see if he can post picture of it. Thanks for any help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam2434 Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 And while your're at it, they should all be glued in place, as they are generally not secured to the motorboard very well at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam2434 Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 I posted the following a while back when I was working on my Fortes: Forgot to mention that I used Liquid Nails Perfect Glue Fuze It (PG-00) for the grill peg inserts. It's a clear, flexible glue that comes in a small tube. The package said it was good for wood and rubber, so I figured it would be a good choice. I used a small craft foam applicator to put a layer in the holes in the motorboard as well as a layer on the insert, making sure that I had a thin layer on the lip of the insert too. After inserting the inserts into the holes, I applied pressure to the inserts every few minutes until the glue set up in about 30 minutes. I believe that gluing the inserts did help seal the cabinet a bit, as the PR push test seems to last a bit longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
