I'm sorting out my headlights and both only have three rubber grommets connecting the lamp unit to the rim (red arrows) but there is a fourth grommet hole (yellow arrow). Does anyone know if this is correct or should there be four grommets?

That's correct, if you had a 4th grommet fitted you wouldn't be able to move the reflector using the 2 adjustment screws.
The reason why the hole is there is because these headlights also fit Beetles, but the lens needs to be rotated 90 degrees to give the correct beam.
