Brake fluid plastic feed pipe or reservoir grommet Karmann Ghia: 8.1966 until 7.1971 Bus 8.1966 until 7.1979
Secure Sealing for Your Classic VW Brake System
The rubber grommet with part number 113611817A is a vital small component for the maintenance and restoration of your air-cooled Volkswagen. This boot provides a reliable seal between the feed pipe from the brake fluid reservoir and the master cylinder.
Why This Grommet Is Crucial
Over decades, old rubber seals often become porous or cracked. A faulty grommet can lead to brake fluid leaks or, even more dangerously, allow moisture and air into the system. By using this precisely fitting, OEM-quality replacement part, you restore the full braking performance and safety of your classic car.
