3C9807251 Volkswagen FOAM INSER

This piece is basically a shaped foam block that sits inside the grille itself. It’s designed to fill some of the empty space back there, and its main job is to reduce vibrations and noise. It also helps to direct airflow a bit. Some will even have small pockets to hold things like license plate bolts so they don’t rattle around. Think of it like this—your grille gets bombarded with air, road debris, even just the normal vibrations of driving. The foam insert acts like a shield, absorbing a lot of that impact and preventing it from transferring into the body of your car. It’s a small part, but it makes a surprising difference. It's not structural, it doesn't hold anything together, it just improves the experience. You’ll notice if it's missing or broken—you'll start hearing rattling or buzzing sounds, especially at certain speeds. It won't affect how your car runs, but it’ll definitely be annoying. It’s one of those things that you don’t really appreciate until it’s gone. They do wear out over time, especially with a lot of highway driving or if you’re frequently on gravel roads. If you’re chasing down a noise, it’s worth checking. We carry a good selection of these at Fixparts Online, and honestly, it's a pretty easy DIY fix most of the time. Our promise to you: Foam Insert (MPN 3C9807251) comes with a 12-month warranty!
