Did you try googling the number on the back? I cannot see it well enough or I'd have done so. All the best.

If it was found in the cup holder, then it probably belongs there.

It’s the plastic cover that hides the bolt on the door panel. Looks under the door panel armrest, above the map pockets.

It looks to me like it is the access panel located on the left drivers side of the center console, far forward. It slots in very easily and it is what I took off to fix the connector to the infotainment display that was causing it to flicker. You might have to take a flashlight to see it.

Pineapple YOU ARE THE MAN! And correct... thanks a lot I have no clue where this goes, and worst if it is the one that goes on the driver side it's already there!
So I have an extra piece? I am not sure why the Dealer left this on the front cup holder. However, I am not sure if the passenger side also uses one, if it does it is a pain to get to that bolt without removing the arm rest on the passenger side. It doesn't look like the passenger side has this cover though if so SOMEONE please correct me as this would be the passenger side cover and it is missing and should be on the door.

THANKS again! I'll contact the dealer tomorrow and let them know. Could someone confirm that the passenger side doesn't need one? hehe... I wonder if it is the one from my passenger side door... Yikes!
Anyway, have a great day! thanks! v/r J
