Part number help

[classic]

Trying to find the part numbers for the rubber bellows that go around the starter cable and the main wiring harness where they exit the rear tunnel.

Pulling my hair out looking at the parts manual.

TIA

It is part of the main harness and the parts are not sold separately, AFAIK.

Tony, do you have a photo?

No the car had no grommets there at all when i got her just silicon

Really stuck now, i can't start putting the engine in until i get the main wiring harness over the torsion tube, and i've had no luck finding a Grommet for it.

Some one suggested i try the latter Part number i think 76 999.702.044.50 which won't fit, any other suggestions???

Anyone who's restored one, what have you used???


TIA

#3 maybe?

I think you answered your question, no grommets, just silicone. I don't think there was ever a separate boot there, just some sealer globbed on. I think the rubber sleeve over the harness was just pulled over the bulkhead nub. At least I have never seen a separate boot used there. Don't remember for sure about the starter cable, it may have had a grommet, if so a generic one will work there.

Thanks I found and purchased a grommet for the starter cable. I assumed that the main harness would also have one as the hole is the same, in that it has a lip.

With reference to the sleeve pulled over the lip, the protective sleeve on the loom that I just put back in is one piece from the front of the tunnel to the plugs in the engine compartment.

What year car are you working on? On 70 -72 cars I've done there is a rubber/vinyl sleeve that goes over the harness from the engine bay to the bulkhead. On my 67 (pictured) there was also a sleeve albeit slightly different diameter that is shown here being replaced.
