X308 plastic cover for spark plug / coils
 
Dear all,

I've recently swapped spark plugs and after removing the screws which hold the plastic cover on top of the coils & spark plugs in place, we noticed some corrosion underneath.
The reason for this corrosion is that one of the 8 screws for the plastic cover of the spark plug compartment are missing, and also that the plastic cover is broken in a certain place.

So here comes my questions:
- Does somebody know the part # of the screws for the spark plug plastic cover?
- Is there a replacement part for the spark plug plastic cover available?

Thank you very much,
bf

BTW on the second picture of the plastic cover you can see the broken screw holder on the top left of the picture. The plastic around the metal part has been broken off, which is why I would like to replace the plastic cover in order to re-seal the spark plug compartment.

This place is just over in France...https://www.jagpieces.com/6-vis-hexa...2c-c2x26926305
As for the cover, there are plenty about the internet, just type in that part #... NCA2570CA ...yours end in CB, but when I used that, nothing but motorcycle parts came up on my end.

That helps a lot - thank you very much! It's always hard to find the right word in English language when you're looking for a car part :)

So it seems the "x308 ignition coil cover" has number:
- AJ84151G at https://www.britishparts.co.uk/class...il-cover-p1408for 80 GBP (but out of stock)
- NCA2570CA at https://www.certstoreu.com/index.php...ucts_id=137835 for 122 CAD or https://www.ebay.com/p/1911247222?iid=233979813981 incl. screws for 57 USD
- NCA2570CB at https://www.ebay.de/itm/Deckel-Abdec...-/203193380212 for 39 EUR

And the six hexagonal screws for the x308 ignition coil cover have number JFS10512C and can be ordered at https://www.jagpieces.com/6-vis-hexa...2c-c2x26926304 for 6 EUR.

Maybe I should go with the
NCA2570CB because that's the exact part # written on the one I am trying to replace.

Thank you very much!

Today the used NCA2570CB part arrived from ebay for 39 EUR and I installed it. Worked like a charm. Happy to have resolved this small issue - thanks for all your help!
