A grommet assembly for an outboard motor includes a grommet having a step, a flexible sleeve having a step and a connector configured to engage the step on the grommet and the step on the flexible sleeve. Preferably, the connector is in the form of an annular connector formed of two semicircular members connected to one another. Additionally, the step formed on the sleeve preferably is defined by a helical groove formed on the flexible sleeve. The connector preferably includes a helical wall defining a step that corresponds to the helical step formed on the flexible sleeve. The grommet assembly may also be in the form of a kit including a grommet having a step and a connector configured to engage the step on the grommet and a step formed on an existing flexible sleeve.
