Losing points because the judges say your cars' headlight dimmer switch grommet isn't original?  This is a rather common situation.  Many judging books INSIST that all correct/original GM 4591475 grommets were made from material that feels like soft pliant rubber vs. harder injection molded plastic.

Personally, I don't think so. Why? Well, as best I can tell part number 4591475 was a purchased part meaning there had to have been multiple manufacturers qualified to supply it. And, as I walk the scrap yards to gather factory originals from other GM cars and trucks from this era, MANY that I find ARE made from hard-to-the-touch plastic.

But, you're bidding here on a used original 4591475 grommet that's made from soft rubber like material. Flip these over and you typically find either no manufacturer ID marks or an "M" emboss. The "M" emboss agrees with the mark commonly seen on carpet push in fasteners from the era and this one has that mark.

Bottom line, why fight City Hall, over what's factory correct/original? You can solve the point loss problem here and give the judges what they want to see.

Detroit Autorama to host Golden Commandos and Ram Chargers drag-racing teams

Fri, 07 Mar 2014

The Golden Commandos group was started in 1962 by Chrysler technicians, mechanics and engineers who worked in Highland Park, Mich.

Lamborghini Murcielago – recall for fire risk

Tue, 25 May 2010

Lamborghini Murcielago on Fire We don’t do the whole ‘Wrecked Exotic’ here on Cars UK. There’s something a bit unedifying about publishing pictures of the misfortunes of others, be they accidents or fires. Seems a bit ghoulish to us, although I’m sure we’d get even more traffic through the site if we did.
