This is a genuine BMW plug housing, part number 12 52 1 711 218. The number stamped on the part is 12521711218; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 1711218. You will find it on our Electrical shelf, under Other Engine Electrical System parts.

It fits every E36 body style (318i, 318ti, 320i, 325i and M3, 1992–1999), with the M40, M42, M43, M50, S50 or S52 engines — and the European-market versions. It also fits every E46 body style (316i, 316i 1.6, 316i 1.9, 316ti, 318d and 318i, 1997–2004), with the M43, M47, M47N, N40, N42 or N45 and other engines.
