OVERVIEW
Genuine plug for the original door access opening
The N-909-087-01 Genuine VW/Audi plug closes the assigned door access opening in the original window-regulator and door-lock assembly. The factory catalog identifies this plug with a nominal 12.5 mm specification.
Door assemblies use several plugs and grommets of different sizes and profiles. Match the original part number and receiving opening. This is an individual plug, not a window regulator, cable grommet, door seal or complete door trim assembly.
Technical details
- Complete factory number: N-909-087-01.
- Factory specification: 12.5 mm nominal catalog size.
- Design: press-in plug for the original door access opening.
- Quantity supplied: one individual plug.
The catalog size identifies the original application rather than packaged dimensions. Correct retention depends on the plug profile and the condition of the opening. A similarly sized universal plug may not reproduce the original fit.
Common reasons to replace
- The original plug is missing after window-regulator or door service.
- The plug is split or torn.
- The retaining edge is damaged.
- The plug is distorted and no longer seats securely.
- An incorrect substitute was installed in the original opening.
Inspect the receiving opening for damage and clean away debris before installation. Check other door seals and the moisture barrier if investigating water entry. This small access plug does not replace the door's main weather seal or repair a damaged regulator.

Confirm the plug is fully retained and does not interfere with the regulator, latch or wiring. Restore any disturbed moisture barrier and trim and check door and window operation as required by the service procedure.
