That part number is for the air guide beside the headlamp not the rear cover.
What car and year is it off?
I take it your looking to buy one or just advice on it?

Hi yes im in need of one for the nearside but need the part number to start my search.its for the b4 saloon 2.0e 1992

There isn't one of those for the nearside. number 32 in the pic below is only on the side of the airbox

so let me get this right there is no plastic cover for the nearside ,and yet it leaves the headlight backing bare apart from the bulb rubber covers,it looks horrendous and open without it .theres sliding grooves for one to be fitted tho.cheers by the way guys for your time.

It looks that way. It's possible you could adapt something to fit by turning a right side upside down

No I think you’ve picked this up incorrectly
There’s a cover for both headlamps, I’ve got one spare here I think.
The part number you gave has hee-haw to do with the headlamps and is part of the induction system.
Mikes right in that that part is right sided only albeit it’s the headlamp cover you need and there’s one of those for both sides!

Ye im sure there should be one for the nearside .if i knew how to upload a photo it would show you. If you have a nearside one spare i will buy it mate .its only for decorative as its unsightly without cheers.

Item 7?
It appears to be a common part on many models

Hanuman thanks but that round cover is on its a oblong part as mikes2 states only for the near side.
