I created RH part from LH using mirror linked body. I brought part as assembly component and selected it to created mirror body.
We don't want this part to see in assembly structure but still use the wave link operaiton.
If I try to delete the child part then there is a WARNING that link will be broken ater deleting this component.

Working at GM suppler, I saw part from GM created the way we want (Only differnce they are not mirrored parts.)
The part is in wave link relationship browser but not in assembly structure.

Recommended for you

if you right click on the parent part in the assembly navigator and select properties, then pick component is reference only, it will be excluded from your structure whilst still being in the assembly. You can go a step further by right clicking on the component once you have made it reference only and then click suppresion which will hide the component until such a time as you need to up date the wave link. then simply unsuppress.
