Touch ID Board Y-shaped Cowling

About this part

The Touch ID Board Y-shaped Cowling (Apple part number 923-08670) is a genuine Apple part that fits the MacBook Pro 14-inch 2023 M2 Pro/Max, MacBook Pro 14-inch 2023 M3/Pro/Max, MacBook Pro 14-inch 2024 M4/Pro/Max and 2 other models. This cowling is the small metal cover that secures the Touch ID Board Y-shaped connection. It holds the named connector in place; it is not the speaker, audio board or Touch ID sensor itself. Match the cowling and its mounting hardware to the listed device model.
