Piece fell from passenger side. car started doing a lot of noise.

Hi everyone, i wanted to ask you guys about something that happened recently

one day, while cleaning the car, i found this little piece at the passenger side, under the carpet.

probably it went under the carpet and is from some place in the dashboard since i cannot find a place for this piece.

anyway, after i found this piece, the car has started to do some clanking plastic noises as if a plastic piece is clashing with something in the glove box or above it. i guess this piece does something there and is the cause of this.

i don't know where this piece goes and if any of you could help me i would be very thankful.

thanks a lot for the help.

 

thanks a lot! will look and tell you how it went.
