I noticed I am missing something on the inside of front wheel of my Fiat 500 Lounge 2009 model.
I want to buy a replacement but I don't know what it is called. Can someone help? Please see pictures attached.

It looks like an access panel in the wheel arch liner to get to the headlight.

The Fiat parts catalogue calls it a "plug", part number is 71752114 (same for both sides). UK price is about £7.00 (GBP).

are those tires from 2009?
 
Tyres are still more than legal.

They may well be legal, but I sure as hell wouldn't want to be driving around in today's conditions on those. We've had a shed load of snow up here and some nasty icy conditions with it and I'm glad ours is wearing the Vredesteins. The company I work for has a safety policy in place that dictates tyres are changed at 3mm, and seeing as I'm knocking out over 35k a year, I personally find it a good policy.
 
if you can tell the tread depth of those tyres from the photos you're a better man than I :)

Oh come on! :devil: I'm just basing my own opinion on looking at the outer tread edges. Clearly the lighting on the photo etc will make it awkward to actually give a realistic view, but I'm betting in real life, they ain't that great. Looks too like the wheels have had a damn good scuffing!

Anyway, we've now gone well off topic and I feel like a slap coming along! :p
