What do you call these electrical wiring bundle insulators?
I’m missing a few of these little guys here and there around the car. I’ve been through the Katalog PDF - they’re not under electrical or body. They go over the metal straps that bind up the bundles of wires that are routed along the panels of the car. If there’s a part number, I’m going to grab a few to replace the bare metal tabs that are left. If there’s no part number, I’m thinking of buying a spool of 10mm high temp flexible PVC and cutting some more to match. Any ideas what these are called or how to find them in the parts catalog?

That looks like heat shrink material.

It's just vinyl tubing, meant to keep the metal tabs from damaging the wires.

I used thicker quality shrink-wrap insulation with a oval cut in the center section to slip it over just like the original...
