Wots this then?

I found this rolling around in the back. I can't see where it has come from. It's about 2 1/2" long. It has a code on it: VW 535 858 716. Any ideas?

If that was too easy, I also found this loose in the engine bay - obviously a generic fastener, but I can't for the life of me see where it has come from.

Top one sits behind the fuse box cover, if you remove fuse box cover you will see where it slots on.

 

It should be fitted into the carpet if its the bit im thinking of.

Thanks Riley, that could make sense as the RAC guy was fiddling around the fuse box last year at some point when the rear spoiler jammed, blew its fuse, which turned out to be shared by the immobilser, so she wouldn't start. I'll have a look in the morning when it's light again. Ta.

 

If not, then it's "gisintin the bin, even if it didny cumooty it" (Have we invented a new language, or just taken the p**s out of the Scots (hopefully not the Irish ;) )

Riley, you were spot on - but I'd never have found where that thing went myself, so thanks. For everyone else who has one of these rolling around, it seems to be a bracket to support the back of the fuse box shroud/shelf. The four "prongs" locate on a metal bracket. You fit it pointing up (not sure that makes sense, but you'll know when you try it) and the big "prong", on the side opposite to the four prongs, acts as a support for the back of the fuse box shroud/shelf. Thanks again.

 

Billcor, don't worry, no offense taken (or intended) just a good larf ... :lol:

 

Thanks all.
