1K6998215 Volkswagen SPACER

Basically, a spacer creates a gap or maintains a specific distance between two things. In a vehicle, that’s usually between an electrical component and the body of the car, or between two parts of an assembly. They come in all shapes and sizes, and can be made from plastic, rubber, or metal, depending on what they’re doing. Sometimes it’s a simple little sleeve, other times it’s a more complex shaped piece. It might hold a headlight assembly at the right angle, keep wiring from rubbing against metal, or even isolate an electrical component to prevent shorts. Think of it like a little buffer – it ensures everything lines up properly and doesn't vibrate or wear prematurely. It can also act like a shield, protecting something sensitive from heat or impact. A lot of times it’s used during manufacturing to get everything positioned just right, and then it stays put. If a spacer is missing or damaged, things can start to rattle, electrical connections can fail, or parts can rub together causing wear and tear. You’ll notice if something’s off – maybe a light flickers, or you hear a strange noise. It might seem small, but it can lead to bigger, more expensive problems down the line. You can usually find the right one for your vehicle on a site like Fixparts Online; they’ve got diagrams to help make sure you get the correct fit. It’s always best to replace a damaged or missing spacer to avoid those headaches. Competitive edge: Spacer (MPN 1K6998215) comes with a 12-month warranty!
