Thank you

In 00 Weber replaced this front panel for the silver b and c with what they described as a three sided panel. It will bolt securely into place on a x000 and, in my opinion makes the end of the grill look better, and it doesn’t fall off.

Neat information! Thanks!

Wow, $12 for shipping for a $12 part! Thank you for the link and the help -that’s what it needs, and so that’s what it gets!

Wow, $12 for shipping for a $12 part! In fairness, if you want to play you have to pay lol. Will look for other options before ordering. Thanks again for the link, advice, and help!

Take the other one you already have to the hardware store and see if you can find a match

 

[Josh Dekubber]

Also seeing a lot of similar options on Amazon for under $10 with measurements.

I see now for the shield panel. Thanks for clarifying Josh.

sorry for the confusion

No reason to be sorry. Always happy to help if I can.

I wish I had an extra one to send you, but half the grills I pick up are missing one as well. I think I'm going to try and 3D print some new ones. They shouldn't be as complicated as a wheel insert.

What a nice gesture!
You’ve really been incredibly kind with helping me.
Please don’t worry about my little stuff

 

[Steve Garretson]

Been busting you know what on the hard parts.

I'll probably need these in the future, I found one extra one I can use to make new ones. There's no way I'm going to pay that much for new ones. I just don't know when I'll get around to it.

 

[Steve Garretson]

I’ll do it once, under duress, but I will never do it again.

Understandable when you don't already have a supply of extra parts. Do you have enough frame plugs to finish your grill? You may as well combine shipping if you need anything else.

Or an auto parts store. Push pins like that are very common in automotive work

I get all those plastic trim pieces from my local ACE Hardware store. They have the plastic push pins in many varieties and sizes. They also have a variety of control panel plugs disguised as license plate plugs. They have the square tube end plugs (in different sizes) including the 1”. I can get the tank scale plastic tips in a variety of colors. Same goes for the wheel/axle end caps. Although I’ve only found red caps in 3/8”. But you could just get the push clips and reuse the white covers. The hardware store is MUCH cheaper than ordering online, you can get the quantity you need (Not 50 at a time) and there’s No shipping. I think I spent $9 on ALL the plastic pieces I needed

GLuck, J

Good tip, Jay! That is certainly the first place to look. It does depend on the size of your Ace location how much you will be able to find.

I grew up in a small Dutch farm town Lynden Washington up against the Canadian border. We actually had a decent amount of options in our small community for stuff like this. Ace hardware, True Value and my first choice Coast To Coast Total Hardware. That store had everything. I just looked it up and there are no more Coast to Coast total hardware stores. They've been bought out and converted to True Value as of 1997.
