Front Brake Dust Shield (Right) for BYD e3, OE 12542891-00

This listing is the right-hand front shield. Sides are named from the driver's seat looking forward, so the right one sits on your right as you drive. Jack the car safely, take the wheel off and read the OE number on the shield you are replacing, then compare it with 12542891-00 on this page. Shields are handed and will not swap across, so ordering by eye is a false economy. If you need the left one instead, ask us for it through the quote route.

It does. This one carries the OE number 12542891-00 and also under EL-3103202. Either marking identifies it. A shield that has been in service is often too corroded or dirty to read, so clean the face before you decide the number is missing. If nothing legible survives on your old one, do not order from the picture. Give us a photograph of the old part and its label through the quote route and we will match the correct hand and specification from the fitment table for you.

This one is flagged as safety critical in our records, and it sits in the braking system group on the front axle. Have it fitted by a qualified technician. Getting to it means the wheel off and work around the hub and disc, and anything disturbed in that area has to go back correctly torqued and correctly seated. A home fitter without axle stands, a torque wrench and the figures for this car should not attempt it. Book the job with a garage and hand them this page.

Delivery takes 8 to 14 days from your order to your door. Because the fitting job means the wheel and hub area come apart, most owners have the shield in hand before the garage books the car in. Order it first, then arrange the labour once you can see the delivery moving. If you already have a workshop date fixed, tell us that date through the quote route before you order so we can say whether it works.

The material is metal and the colour is black. That is what arrives. Nothing about coating life or resistance is stated in this record, so treat the finish as supplied rather than as a claim. When your technician has it off the vehicle, it is worth them checking the condition of the hub face it mounts against, since a new shield fitted to a corroded or distorted seat will not sit true. Ask them to look before the new one goes on.

Only the Original/Genuine tier exists for this OE number. BYD is the maker and the condition is New, so there is one version and one price shown on this page. Where an aftermarket equivalent has been sourced for a part, the page shows both tiers with their prices side by side, which is not the case here. On a braking system item many buyers prefer the Original/Genuine route anyway. If you want an aftermarket equivalent investigated, ask through the quote route.
