Part overview
Item: Passenger footwell fuse box cover / trim cover
Part number shown on listing: 6946627
Branding: PART.PILOT
Material: hard plastic trim cover
Fitment position: passenger footwell, protecting the fuse box/relay area from dirt, feet and accidental damage.
Why replace it
A missing or cracked cover can leave the fuse area exposed to dirt, moisture, scuffs and accidental contact. Replacing it restores a neat finish and keeps the fuse area protected.
Symptoms of damage can include a loose cover, rattles, visible fuse area, dirty footwell trim, or a cover that no longer clips in securely.

Why buy the correct part first time
Choosing the right original-spec part helps avoid fitting problems, saves time, and reduces repeat labour. It also gives the car a cleaner finish than many cheap copy parts that can sit poorly or use weak clips.
Used factory-correct parts can save buyers a significant amount compared with buying new, and in many cases the saving can be as much as 70%.
