Thanks all for the suggestion that my grommet might just be dirty. I took it off last night and it cleaned up fine, although it definitely has some age on it and has lost most of its' elasticity. I did get it reinstalled, but the line is not centered up in the core support hole and the fit leaves something to be desired. A softer grommet might fit a little better, so I'll leave the BOLO request open, but at least it looks better than it did.

Bill and Glenn - thanks for the feedback on the anchor cover/escutcheon. I'll play around with it tonight and see what I can do.

I need a little information on the length of the elastic on the shoulder belt. Should the elastic have any extra length between the two points where it is sewn onto the belt, or should the length of the elastic closely approximate the distance between the two points where it is sewn onto the belt? The elastic on the belts now is so stretched out and dry rotted that it's of little help in making that determination.

Here's the Grommet...
