Default Does anyone recognize this part & where it belongs?
I found this part on the driver's side floor near my left foot today. I looked around underneath the dash & in general on that side of the car with a flashlight & have no clue where it came from. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

It looks important. Show it to the SA at your next service appointment.

My guess it's a wire clamp that fell out from under the dash. I wouldn't worry too much. Unless it causes your car to stop on an isolated stretch of interstate at night. In the rain.

Looks familiar and think I saw something like this during my Top view retrofit project. Check your seat track covers. Think it may be the aesthetic cover to the seat rail.

Default Hood release handle clip!!
It's the clip that holds the hood release in place. It should snap back in on the backside of the handle.

And the winner is................. DaGerman. Thanks so much!!! I probably would have never looked there. Makes sense though given its proximity to my left foot. Once again thank you!
