Default Windshield washer pump grommet leaking

The tank and pumps are ok but the grommet seals leak. Rock has them but only in lots of 10 ea., a new pump with seal doesn't cost much more. Has anyone found other replacements for the grommet seals ? If not, I am thinking of putting on the pump a tight fitting o-ring and using rubber cement to stick it to the grommet to stop a simple slow leak. Any better ideas ? *BW*

$1.80 plus shipping at Rock Auto. Piece of Cake! And its not Dorman either.

Sorry, but I tried the Rock and they only sell in multiples of 10. The price shows each until you go to your cart, then you get a surprise. Thanks. *BW*

That sucks! How about a hot glue gun or RTV sealer?
