WANTED Ignition wires clip and fan shroud flap

[darek_u]

I'm looking for one piece of fan shroud rubber flap and ignition wires clip, left side p/n 1191580173 - please note that left side is different from the right one! This small clip is NLA from dealer. For clarity here is the picture:



Obviously clip is missing here, this is just for a better picture
Shipping will be to Poland so best would be to have them packed in envelope I think to avoid killer price... I'm pretty sure both items will fit in either standard or padded small envelope.

I think @Gatorblue92 is parting a 400E, and can probably help with the flap or conplete shroud. Probs LH the clip(s) too.

I have spares on the clips but they are my personal parts stash. One of them is still available, the other not.

clips should be available from M119s used in early 140s and 129s, so hopefully someone can help.

The driver-side clip has been NLA for years, and for whatever reason, is usually missing from parts cars. Would be a great item to have 3D printed.

Note there is a tab which protrudes from the plastic piece which surrounds the cam solenoid & distributor, that must be present for the clip to snap into. If the tab is broken off, you need to replace the plastic surround as well. The dust covers also have tabs underneath which lock them in place, these are usually broken too. Last I checked all the parts were available new, but are kinda spendy.

I sent Gatorblu92 a PM, thank you for the tip Gerry. Dave - I have this tab in place and intact, it is just a clip that's missing. Not a big deal really but quite annoying as the wires tend to fall off the plastic shroud

I never realized there was a clip there since its broken on both of my cars. I used black zip ties on my black 93 400E to keep the wires contained. I'll need to check the condition of the fan shroud when its not dark and raining but I think its all there.

Patience ... they are out there. I come across a few sets per year.
