Hi guys,

What is this part called?  The plastic garnish/cover/whatever it is.  I seem to have lost one of the little round covers that gives access to the strut.  It would be nice to get another one of these covers, just for completeness.  Any ideas?

Thanks!

Such a common issue.  I bought a batch of them about 10 yrs ago and slowly over the years I’ve used all of them.  I think you can still order them from Acura.

I may have a spare one, I also have the part number at home as well.  I had replaced mine a few years back.

Add a dab of silicone when you install them

I could use one too.  Who ever orders could order two more and I will settle up with you.
 
Thanks,
 
Kevin.

They are pretty cheap via Amayama, that's where I ordered mine.

If Francois can get the part number I'll order a bunch.

I’d take part in said bulk purchase. I’m missing most of mine.

No problem, I'll post here when they arrive. 

We recently moved to a place that accommodates storing the car in the garage so I don't need a fixed date anymore, yay!

Parts received! I ordered 20.  

Cost breakdown: unit price $1.64
Shipping: $26.17
Import duty/tax: $20.04
Grand Total: $79 (or close to $4/plug)

What I would have paid at Kanata Honda (who said there were only 4 left in Canada): $147.13 ($7.36/plug after tax)

Just an FYI.

We should arrange a coffee meet to pick them up.

Feel free to email me privately and setup a time to come and pick it up.  I'm just outside Dunrobin.
