    Alternator help - plastic cover on rear? (91 318is)

    So I'm changing out the leaky oil filter housing gasket, and when removing the 2 wires going to the rear of the alternator, the plastic cover cracked (piece that attaches to the alternator itself). Does anyone know if this piece can be replaced without buying a new alternator? I can't find anything online. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.


    EDIT:
    Was able to locate it; part # 12311727383 for the black plastic cover if anyone needs it, and part # 12311727764 for the 2 nuts.

    In case you want to find one in a junkyard instead of paying $18, all E30 318i/is, and all E36 318i/is/ti models ought to have the same part.
