I have an Oceanic Atmos XT BC. I want to add a couple grommets onto the side pocket to mount my knife. I know I can just burn or poke holes through, but I would rather buy and install grommets or pay somewhere to do it so its clean and last longer. I have four questions below and some info about the grommets.
1. What size grommets does oceanic use on there BCs for the accessory mount points?
2. What online stores that sell stainless steel grommets for marine use?
3. How to install them? What is needed and where to buy or rent it?
4. Are grommets measured by inner/hole diameter or out diameter?
* It would also be cool to find the dark black colored grommets like the ones on my BC to make it match
I measured the size of the grommets on my BC. Its hard to tell exactly, but below is what I got in inches
Outer Diameter: 11/16 or maybe 10/16 (5/8)
Inner Diameter: 4/16 (2/8) or 5/16
