OEM engine cover gromet anyone?

Does anyone know where I can buy one of the plastic gromets that is attached to the underside of the OEM engine cover?

One of them was lost during my fuel return pipe recall at the dealership, but apparently you cannot just order the gromet itself and have to buy the entire engine cover.

I wonder if the US or UK may be different and can actually order the gromet itself. Let me know.

Thats the first thing I did, and I`m still waiting for their reply.

Its too bad I didn`t find out at the spot until I went home, so it may boil down to them saying I lost it myself.

Description Year MSRP Price Core Price Your Price
Engine cover 2008 $114.23 $85.68
this guys sell it for $85 bucks

good luck buddy!!

i would spend the 85 bucks in some lapdances and make my own gurmet in rubber, or just forget about it, nothing wrong is goin to happen if one is lost.

I'd try to find a thousand dollar JDM one. If they don't offer one, call up ARC, they can probably titanium dip one and sell it to you.

use a bunch of duct tape, be sure to wrap it around your engine block, and maybe your exhaust to make sure its secure too

You can have one of mine if you want. I took off my engine cover the day I brought home my car. PM me.

Throw engine cover in closet. Cost= 0 , traps engine heat anyway.

I kind of think other manufacturers grommets might be similar. You might be able to pinch one at a junkyard that has late models wrecks.
