Bonnet Positive Terminal Cover

Post by Andrew J » Sun Mar 24, 2024 10:16 pm

Evening all, I've been scouring realoem to try and find a part number for the cover that goes over the positive terminal under the bonnet (previous owner has kindly misplaced it). Does anyone know the part number or point me in the right direction on realoem? I've been through the engine electrical and vehicle electrical sections to no avail.

Thanks :thumbsup:

Pretty sure it's this part number: 12427514344 https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/showpa ... 2427514344

Ebay link to confirm: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/394237027169 ... R6iqvqjOYw

You sure it's missing? It's attached by a loop to the cable that runs to that terminal so may have just slid down somewhere, have a good look first.

Seems crazy expensive though :| Maybe try a main dealer first for a price. Or type the part number into Google see what you can find. Can't imagine it's more than a couple of quid new.

No worries, had that before where it's come loose and ended up down the cable, job's a good'un! :wink:
