SS Airbox (and Washer Washer Fluid Reservoir) Grommets
Hello HHR friends, I'm not very good at pasting links from other threads, so bear with me here if it doesn't work out well, please.
Months ago, I hacked the airbox grommet replacement with a generic GM "insulator" (sorry, part number not handy at the moment) with help from the dealership. I then got a recent reply that the standard non-SS HHR grommets worked fine. Set that aside for a moment, this is really more about the WW reservoir grommet.
This week I moved on to the *windshield washer reservoir grommet*, and read all those posts, seeing that 22039457 is the correct grommet, according to this post:
So, I go to the local dealership, they have 22039457 in stock, but to my surprise it looks like an airbox insulator and is much larger/thicker than the existing leaky windshield washer grommet in my 2008 SS. I don't have pictures of the old washer reservoir grommet because I fumbled it into the engine bay abyss and can't find it. In any case, here is what the dealer gave me as 22039457, allegedly correct for the washer reservoir per above post, but in reality looks and measures much more like an airbox insulator and is MUCH larger in every way than the washer reservoir grommet I fumbled into the abyss:
