Good evening all,
I am in the process of performing due diligence on my new baby. The two fellows who are responsible (to blame actually) for my new found love are assisting and guiding, not to mention all the wonderful suggestions I have received from this group (and Richie, the T whisperer). That being said, while removing the coil box from the firewall, we found this little pretty attached behind the coil box. So far nobody has ever seen one. It was suggested by one most learned that it was most likely somebody's attempt at protecting the coil box from water damage, etc. I thought it was interesting and am wondering if anyone has seen anything similar.

Patrick and Annie

Interesting! I've never seen one either!

P.S. Did you mean to post a picture?

Oh yeah.

You don't see those very often...

I have the remnants of a "coilbox protector" which consists of a sheet of small rubber boots to go over the porcelains - I'm assuming that might be what you were referring to ? I'll take it off the wall tomorrow and get a photo.
