Help identify this mystery part please!!!

I found this part laying behind my driver's power seat. I cannot figure out for the life of me what it's for, where it goes, etc...

Can anyone figure out what this part of for?

Look at the rails under the seat. I am gonna bet it goes on the end of one of the rails that the seat slides forward and backward on. It looks to be about that size. I'm not familiar with the 7th gen so this is just a guess based on where you found it and its general size.

These go under the drivers seat.... only your drivers seat inclines up and down....
solution: pick up driver seat as high as possible, look in the back and you will see two hooks and youlll be like wtf that doesnt look right.. put these plastic pieces on the hooks, i think the thicker one goes on the right, not sure.. i would of snapped a shot but its cokd outside IF YOU STILL CANT FIGURE IT OUT LET ME KNOW ILL TAKE A PIC

I took a detailed look under the driver's seat, lifted all the way up, with a flashlight, and I cannot see anywhere obvious this part would fit into.

The rails are fine, they do not go on the rails.

If you can take photos and post it I would very much appreciate it!!

Thank you!!!!! You're awesome!!!

So I am missing all of these on both sides. I only have this one part. The previous owner must have had some factory warranty work done on the seats and the mechanic never put them back on.

It appears to be mostly cosmetic so I can live with out them...

Thank you again, so much!!!!!!!!!

They are only located under the drivers seat, because my passenger seat does not incline... unless the premium package is different..... I could be wrong though

Ok thanks for the clarification. I haven't checked the passenger side so I'm sure you're correct.

Update - no, you are correct. The passenger side does not have the verticle adjustments as the driver seat. Only front / back, and back adjustment.

hummmm....mine doesn't have any of those. I wonder if a mechanic took them off at one point and forgot to put them back on.

My guess is they are to protect feet from being accidently crushed in the rails, or save toes if wearing sandals, from the ends of the rails.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for asking what this part was...I had my car cleaned inside and out by a local carwash company and later found this part part lying on my back seat. I thought they broke something and went nuts trying to find where it was from. So I'll second your comment above.....You guys are great.
