I spotted this while refitting the bumper. Never knew it was there.And back on topic, I'm not sure. First I thought it was the grill screw clip thing, but I think the hole is to small.

Re: Test your knowledge! Reply #385 – November 15, 2021, 03:43:55 PM oh wow, I did wonder if the self tapper would open out the screw but still thought, nah, it's not one of them just as well I mentioed it anyway though.
Re: Test your knowledge! Reply #386 – November 16, 2021, 08:13:35 AM I want to say it's for the MFA vacuum to go through the bulkhead, but I don't think it's right.I know I've seen it recently though!!

He got it right! It is a new grill self tapper plug for the slam panel.

Re: Test your knowledge! Reply #389 – November 18, 2021, 12:43:06 PM In the process of cleaning a spare whatever this came from.At the risk of giving too much away, it was quite corroded and this is it post a wire wheeling. I'm guessing it may have been black originally, but can't confirm that.Poor images, didn't realise until I uploaded them and couldn't be arsed taking them again!Wheel bolt for size comparison only, happened to be the nearest thing to hand, no other reason.
