If you’re maintaining or repairing your 2017+ Tesla Model 3/Model Y—whether running wires through body panels, sealing small openings in the chassis, or replacing old, cracked grommets that let in dust/water—this CFN grommet (part 1106827-00-C) is the precision-fit solution. As a engineered replacement (not Tesla OEM), it mirrors the original’s dimensional specs and material performance, ensuring it seals, protects, and secures components exactly like the factory part.
Grommets might be small, but they play a critical role in your Tesla’s longevity: they act as a “buffer seal” for wires, hoses, or openings in metal/plastic panels—preventing sharp edges from cutting wires (which could cause electrical faults), blocking water/dust from entering sensitive areas (like the interior or battery compartment), and reducing vibration noise from moving parts. This CFN grommet is tailored to Model 3/Y (2017+) needs with precise specs:
- Size: 22X8mm outer dimension (fits panel holes of matching size) and 4X7mm inner hole (accommodates wires/hoses of that diameter), ensuring a snug fit without forcing.
- Grip Range: 0.8–1mm, meaning it securely clamps onto panels or components within that thickness—no slipping or loosening over time.
- Material: PA66 (nylon 66), a high-performance plastic chosen for Tesla’s factory parts: it resists automotive fluids (oil, coolant, cleaning agents), stands up to extreme temps (-40°C to 120°C, perfect for engine bays or undercarriages), and won’t degrade or become brittle in sunlight (unlike cheap PVC grommets).
What sets this grommet apart from generic alternatives is its compatibility with Model 3/Y (2017+)’s specific panel layouts. It’s designed to fit the same openings as the original 1106827-00-C grommet—common uses include sealing wire pass-throughs in the front trunk (frunk) panel, securing small hoses in the rear chassis, or protecting wiring in the door jams. Its smooth, burr-free edges ensure easy installation: just push it into the target hole until it seats flush with the panel—no tools needed, and it won’t tear or warp during fitting.
Durability is built in, too: PA66’s high tensile strength means it won’t crack if the panel vibrates (a common issue with thin, low-grade grommets), and its water-resistant properties keep moisture out of critical areas—like the battery’s wiring harness, where corrosion could lead to costly repairs. Even with long-term exposure to road salt (in winter) or heat (in summer engine bays), it maintains its seal and shape.
Note: This grommet is exclusively for Tesla Model 3 (2017+) and Model Y (all variants). It won’t fit newer Model 3/Y refreshes (post-2023 with revised paneling) or other Tesla models (S/X). It’s ideal for replacing missing, cracked, or worn factory grommets during maintenance, or as a spare for custom wire/hose installs—keeping your Model 3/Y’s components protected, sealed, and quiet.
