Grommet part number needed
« on: May 02, 2005, 05:19:09 »
Hello,
I need the part number of the GROMMET where the wiring harness comes out of the body (front left hand side further under the wheel arch) and goes to the auto transmission terminal block.

RHD car BTW, don't know if that makes a difference.

I need the part number of that grommet please.

The grommet hole measures at about 25 mm.

Thanks

Mike,
Would you also have a part # for the reversing light cable grommet - also on left footwell?

Only a word of caution. The part number that has been listed here starts with 111 or the body number for that series cars. I thought that part numbers that went across a range of MB models had a more generic start to the part number (100 or similar) and that part numbers that had the specific body designation were unique to that style. I am traveling and do not have the parts manual to refer to as a reference.

Jonny,

Opening my 230SL part book to a random pages, I found part numbers starting with 110, 111, 112, 120, 127, 136, 180, 186, and more.  I think if it was designed for one chassis, then was used in a later one, then they kept that part number.

Rodd,

Thanks for the clarification. That sounds like a pretty logical explanation.
