I have not yet seen a Futaba servo with 2 grommets. When did this start and on which servos?

I've used Futaba 3004's, 3152's and 3010's The higher torque 3152 and 3010's came with came with 4 rubber grommets that push fit at each of the four mounting lugs. The lower torque 3004's also came with 4 grommets. Each had 2 holes side by side, with one fitting on top of the servo and the other underneath, two at each "end" of the servo. They are a PITA since neither will stay in place until you get the eyelets pushed through.

Thanks for getting it right. No matter if you're refferring to servo mounting or whatever the brass pieces are gromments, always have been always will be. They are used in many applications not always that size but same shape. The do make a tool for installing Grommets in canvas or other materials. Our RC application is slightly different but they are grommets. Flat end goes to bottom of servo as stated. I'm surprised many did not see tha reason.
