Subaru Genuine Hood Prop Grommet - 57253AA010

Oem! Direct replacement. Thank you

Hood prop on my wife’s Subaru Outback works just like new. Recommend for all Subaru owners. The rubber wears out and looses its ability to stretch and will start cracking with age.

This replaced my 2008 Subaru grommet that holds the hood prop to the firewall. I used a little Armor All as a lubricant and a small screw driver to push the edges in with gentle force to get it into place. Perfect fit!

Just as it should be. Right part just not right price. Taxed a bit much.

Fit perfectly! Now the prop rod for the hood of my Subaru is actually useful again!

fits and works as it should

Genuine oem Subaru. Why not…

This thing worked out perfectly. It was easy to install. Just look around in these reviews for tips on how to make it as easy as possible. Here are a couple I found: 1) use soap on the thing to make it easier to stick it in the hole meant for it as well as to make it easier to stick in the stick through the hole in the thing meant for that; and, 2) install the thing in the hole meant for it first before sticking the stick into that things hole, which youd do after this first step, making this step the second one following that one, step number one. I also used a vice grip set of pliers as the thing wouldnt easily pop into that hole mentioned above meant just for the thing to be stuck in. I was able to force the thing in using said pliers gripping both on the thing and on the metal sheeting surrounding the hole meant for that thing. Then, I just stuck in the stick which stuck in perfectly. Also, you can find a cheaper price perhaps with online Subaru parts dealers but youll probably end up paying 15-20 bucks in shipping just for this little thing.

Perfect fit. Works like new.

Works good works like a good oem replacement
