tow hook,
I got my harness from Vintage Wiring (VW). Theirs included a grommet that fit in a smaller hole (I just measured the outside of the grommet and it was .78"). I notice each of your wires have their own hole to pass through the grommet. The VW grommet had one big hole for the loom that encased the wires.
Looks like this one:

I'd call to verify size though.
, the new ones are 1 1/8" mine are just under 3/4" any thoughts walcks 4wd doesn't have them, kaiser has a 1/2" s and the one in the picsI found some pictures taken before I took it apart.....
The picture with the wire circled is the passenger side.
I would guess that the "one size fits all" approach to making it easier for the seller might be a part of this. I believe the CJ-3B does this (headlight/parking light in the same loom). When I ordered mine - to include wiring for turn signals - I ended up with an additional loomed wire that barely fit under the harness clip meant to secure the headlight/parking light wires.
If the owner knows (I didn't know anything since my harness was just a mass of loose wires) what is needed or what is wanted, they can ask the seller to incorporate that need. Then it'll be a beneficial conversation starter at the next Reunion when someone notices!!
I may be mistaken. It's been a while now, but I found wire loom clips and old loom remnants along the lower edge of my 3A grille, so I asked Bob Westerman about that. I believe he left me with the impression that all or part of the passenger side wires were down there. Maybe it was just the park light wire...? Maybe I'm smokin' dope.
EDIT::Okay, I found an original 2A grill picture posted by Ryan M over at the 2A page. Scroll down a bit to see the 2A grill with the lower wire loom. It was for the park light wire only...

At the time I was putting my green 3A together, I was thrown off by the Walck's wire harness containing both the headlight wires and the park light wires in a single loom, thus my question to Bob Westerman.

Here are a couple pictures.
The gray one is the 1951 CJ-3a.
The red is the 55 CJ-5.
The CJ-5 has turn signals so there is an extra wire outside the normal loom.
There are images of Lawrence Wade's '55 CJ-3B on the CJ3B Page that show most of this (from the perspective of a 3B) here:

Look at the "Grill" brace, the Firewall and under the "Air Cleaner" to see how the harness and the speedo cable was routed.
