Its the grey rubber grommet comming out of the back of the housing right? I think you best bet is a good used one. Maybe try the electrical accessories isle at a good mom and pop hardware store, or try the local pick and pull for something similar.

That grommet is very similar to grommets used where a power cord exits a housing, kind of like you would see on a drill or circular saw but smaller.

generic is just fine with me.

here are some rough measurements...

the power cord is roughly .375-.385 inches in diameter.
the entire length of the stock grommet (including that which fits inside the light housing) is about .940-.950 inches
the exposed body of the grommet is about .875 inches
the recessed area (groove) that locks the grommet into the light box is .585 inches

i will send ya a picture.
