Anybody know what the name of this is and where I could get?

This is the rubber cover over the light switch in the boot, see pics.
Had a look on mx5parts.co.uk but could not find it, not sure what I should search for tho..
In the photo I have it covered with black duct tape, as it is leaking and the boot is wet and smelly !
Anybody got one going?

Thanks

Photo,s are bad but looks like it called a rubber grommet where somebody had fitted an alarm and this hole is where the bootlid contact was fitted.Buy the correct size grommet in local motor factors and put some silicone around it and pop it in the hole !! All of approx 50cent worth

Ah so its for the alarm, I thought it was for the boot light !!

Its a weird shaped rubber, has with 2 holes - 1 for switch and other for screw

Doubt I'll be able to get in hardware store... so silicone

If there are no wires attached etc just fill the hole properly or get blank grommet to fill opening
