What You're Actually Buying
This is the front chrome grille shell paired with the bug screen insert that mounts to it — one assembly, not two separate buys. Kenworth ran this style on the T680 for basically the whole first-gen body style, 2015 through 2022, before they tweaked the front end again.
No emblem cutout on this one, so if your truck came with the badge mounted through the grille itself, that's a different part number and this won't line up right. Check your old grille before you order — if there's a hole punched for the Kenworth bug emblem, you need the version with the cutout, not this one.
Aftermarket chrome pieces like this vary a little in how they're stamped depending on the run, so tab spacing and screen tension can be off by a hair from one batch to the next. Nothing that stops installation, but it's why we tell guys to have the old part in hand when they call.
Why These Numbers Cross
02-1210555, KWN-017, and L45-6064-110 all show up as cross-refs to L296155100 because they're all built to the same mounting pattern and shell dimensions for this T680 body style. Different suppliers, same physical part — the numbering just depends on who's catalog you're pulling from.
Where guys get tripped up is thinking any 'T680 grille' will bolt up. Kenworth changed grille styling more than once during this run, and there's separate part numbers for the version with emblem provision versus without, plus differences in bug screen mesh count on some years. The number stamped on your old grille, or the VIN, settles it — don't go by year alone.
If you're not sure what's on the truck now, snap a photo of the back of the old grille where it's stamped, or just read us the VIN off the door sticker. Takes us thirty seconds to confirm before you spend $570 on the wrong shell.

Frequently asked questions
Does L296155100 fit my 2018 T680?
Likely, but confirm by the number stamped on your current grille or your VIN first — Kenworth ran a couple grille variants across the 2015-2022 T680 lineup, some with emblem cutouts, some without. This is the no-emblem version.
Is this the same as KWN-017?
KWN-017 cross-references to the same physical grille and bug screen assembly, just a different supplier's part number. Mounting pattern and dimensions match, but pull your old part's number to be sure before ordering.
Can I add the Kenworth emblem to this grille later?
No — this shell doesn't have the cutout or mounting provision for the badge. If you want the emblem, you need the separate part number for that version, not this one.
