[Healeys] BJ8 firewall rubber plugs

Hi Ken,

I don't think there is any rhyme nor reason to the colours of the plugs. The 
red ones (actually sort of a red primer colour) seem to be used in behind 
the firewall throttle stand-off bracket and little red ones on the 
non-driver's side of the foot box to blank off where the gas pedal shaft and 
screws would go. Also big red ones to blank off the shut pillar holes on 
BJ7's and early Phase 1 BJ8's where the strikers used to fit on earlier 
models.
Beyond that most of them are usually black.

Of course, originals should always be saved if possible because new 
replacements are simply a sad and frustrating joke in almost all cases.
