You've got to attach the boot grommet to the lid, but you're missing the connector piece to hold it all together? These connectors aren't manufactured anymore and could break during removal. Little parts like these are essential and a nightmare to source at the same Time.

 

The connector is designed with 16 Cantilever Joints to snap in and secure the boot grommet in place. The connector is not intended to be detached after it's snapped in place, removal might cause the part to break. In case you wanna be extra sure, this part can also be sealed with hot-glued, for maximum security. 

 

There are two models to choose from. The difference in the two models is that one has a cut, so it might be easier to insert the connector into the sheetmetal cutout. 

I recommend to print the connector standing up, so that the insertion-strain on the snap joints can be absorbed by the perimeters.

I've designed the Connector for Prusament PETG and it hasn't failed a year later.

Printed on Prusa MK3S+ with Revo Hotend and 0.4mm Nozzle.
