Abstract
A grommet assembly includes a bolt assembly that has a head portion. A grommet includes a tapering bolt opening for accepting the bolt assembly. A projecting portion extends from a body portion and has an overhang adjacent a distal end. The bolt opening at least partially defines a radial gap between the grommet and the bolt assembly. The head portion of the bolt assembly is spaced from the distal end of the projecting portion by an axial gap.
