If this a front or a rear part ?

Post by westy64 »

Hello,
I am confused about where this part goes.
I thought it was going around the front bumper shock absorbers, outside.
Is that correct ?

Goes around the rear bumper shock. They are slightly different for each side.

Left and right.
The front bumper shocks do not usually have a boot like that.

Sorry, but I am still confused.

Where does the picture model fit ?

And do you mean the front boots are different ?
Or do you mean there are no boots at the front ?

Who can show all the different models ?
Thanks

There are not any on the front.
The pictured one goes around the rear bumper shock. Not sure which side, but there might be a letter on it:
S = left
D = right

Ok thanks, I'll check this.
I already have a pair of grommets on Prunette, both the same, and different from the picture.

Who's got any info on what goes where, and when ?
