Part ID Help: Splash Shield 51711919990

[ehrawn]

Does anyone have a proper part number for this plastic shield mounted under the engine of my 1992 318i Cabrio? The part number molded in is 51711919990. However, neither RealOEM or google seems to have reference to this. Is there an alternate part number?

RealOEM shows a “Protective Plate,” which appears to mount similarly. However, this is not present under my car.

Wait. I found something: Engine compartment screening: 51711965899

The only thing is that there is a different part number for vehicles with AC. Which should be installed on mine?

Didn't all 318 cabrios in the USA come with AC? Mine did.

The “with AC” version has those wide ears. The one on my car is a narrower version. I went ahead and ordered the 5899. Hopefully it fits..
