    Help with part #

    Does anyone know the part number for this grommet? Its on the drivers side under the steering column. Any help would be appreciated.

          You'll have to scour realoem.com to find that one...

            I can not seem to find it in any realoem diagram. I have a feeling the grommet is part of the harness and youd have to buy the harness to get the grommet. You should put a wtb ad, Im sure someone parting e30s can cut one off for you.

              I look for like an hour on realOEM and didn't come up with anything either. May try the dealer just to get the part number.

                I doubt the dealer will spend an hour trying to look up the part for you.

                Like I said in my previous post, you probably cant by the grommet separately. It likely comes with the wiring harness. So you will have to find a used one off a parts car.

                    Really would like to get a new one if possible. And we're already swimming in the low country man, literally lol

                      Even if you got a new one, I don't think you would be able to replace it without pulling the harness and then pulling all the pins out of the plugs so the wires could fit through.

                        ^^^^ i didn't know that till I went to a grave yard to collect the part and once I removed everything I noticed this. If you have a tear then just melt it together haha

                          Email classic BMW germany, they respond fairly quickly and have access to the nitty gritty.
