This part is used on the upper front cross member on a W124 chassis Mercedes-Benz as a pad for the hood latch. When the hood is being closed, the release latch slides across this pad before locking in. From factory this part comes with the rivet integrated, but it has a tendency to always break off when removed, therefore a 3-in-1 in my re-design.

Tested on a real car, works a treat!
