Default Firewall plug part number

Hi all,
I'm struggling to find the part number for this torn bulkhead plug.




Anyone got any leads?

Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately not.

Have you tried removing it to see if a part number is on the reverse??

Looking at this other GC8 LHD shell it could be a wiring harness grommet

Why not cut out a rubber patch, the same size as the plug and glue it in place on the plug.

or take it out, measure the hole size and do a search for "oval blanking grommets" you might find something to fit.

Yes, it is an option but I like OEM parts that come in a plastic bag with an FHI part number on it

OK As per previous images the LHD non turbo models use this hole for the bulkhead harness connections to the engine loom....



However the LHD turbo models don't.....

As most blanking plugs for equipment not used are grouped with that said equipment, then looking at the main loom diagrams the only item looking anything like the blank plug is
item 19 on link below
http://opposedforces.com/parts/impre...llustration_3/

81202GA020 is listed as NLA on most subaru sites except amayama. Also shown in red in the database usually meaning NLA.
