Looking for a part number (windscreen cowl)

[Wortmanov]

Hi all,

I've been browsing pretty much every section on RealOEM I could think of, but for the life of me, I cannot find if the rubber plugs in the windscreen cowl (where the wiper arms mount on the wiper assembly) are order-able separately.
I have added 2 pics of what I am looking for:



Any help would be much appreciated!

I dont think they are sold separately. I bought a new windscreen cowl a couple of weeks ago, and the rubbers was already mounted in the holes.

Are your plugs perished?
Suspect them as a water ingress point?

Hi - thanks for the replies!

Yeah, I took the cowl off, to clean the wiper motor (and clean/regrease everything else), paint the arms etc. But I noticed it's got some softer rubber coating, which has simply dried out and is falling off. The water shouldn't be too much of an issue, it just feels wrong not to fix it
But buying a new cowl, just to get those rubbers seems a bit... excessive :roll:

You'll find that nothing is excessive when it comes to the Z4's!

I'll be deleting the driver's side wiper arm/mech and will have a spare grommet in the next few days/weeks. PM me and I'll send it as and when I'm allowed to visit the post office!
