I have never seen a 400ex with both seat grommets on when i bought mine one was missing and i bought a new one put it on and it fell off first ride after i put it on. those grommet things are notorious for falling off.

Yeah those seat grommets seem to like to fall out. I just poked a hole in mine and put a zip tie through it. Haven't lost them since like HiperEX..:D

I just glue them on.........
Recently a buddy of mine made some of his own at work out of delrin or something similar, its a hard plastic and it has the ridge cut in on the inside, so it actually clips onto the ridge on the mounts. Pretty neat setup.
