Troubleshooting
Grommet doesn't fit properly.
Double-check the size and compatibility of the grommet with your frame. Ensure the frame's entry point is clean and free of obstructions. Consider using a small amount of frame-safe lubricant to help with the installation.
Cables are loose and rattling.
Ensure the grommets are securely fitted into the frame. Check the cable routing and make sure the wires are not pinched or bent. If necessary, use additional foam or tape inside the frame to further secure the cables.
