Love this!! Thanks all for posting correct part

Searched high and low - couldn't come up with anything. REALOEM not correct.

THANKS!

It’s part number 51711936929

I had a debate with Ian about this and ordered one in to prove it is the correct part number

❤ yep looks like this is the one!

But is the b pillar one same as the fan shroud top as I said? (The ecs link said "fan shroud")

That would then prove that it's not what Casa listed, right?

Can confirm it's definitely not the b pillar/fan shroud one (17111712963) have just pulled one from my car and they are definitely different as mrgizmo04 said.

The item we're looking for has 4 prongs like the fan shroud one, but the prongs are longer and the diameter is smaller.

I've got my car torn apart, bagged and tagged. I'll dig stuff out this weekend and check it.

I have easy access to the b pillar one, and it is definitely much larger diameter.

One with single rivet in pic is b pillar one, one with two of them is from the brake duct.

Those are also the rivets used to hold our b pillar covers on.

I thought Ian, back on the m3f version of this thread, had determined that the rivet (used at upper rad shroud and b pillars) WAS NOT the right one?

Jedi level shit right here...

Ha! I just took mine apart recently, looked up the RealOEM part and it looked wrong. Noticed the fan shroud rivet was the same as the brake duct. Bada bing, Bob's your uncle.

That looks right to me, better shot than anything I found

Having recently taken that bracket apart to connect brake cooling hoses, it looks like what Casa linked, it is 4-pronged push in, not 2-pronged screw like what I linked in post 2.
