Hey all,
I was changing the cabin filter, and found these two piece of black plastic in the glove box. Not sure what they are? Any thoughts? I am not even sure if these come from LS, so apology if they are not. I have looked in the interior and in the engine compartment. I can not figure them out.

I believe they are fixture covers for the front seats. Raise the seats as high and as forward as you can and take a look see from the back seat what areas appear to be missing parts.

They are covers for the front seat tracks. The ones show fit at the end of track that is adjacent to the door side of the car. That is definitely the case for the cover shown in the left hand side of the photo. The covers for both seat tracks adjacent to the doors are identical parts. The covers that fit on the tracks adjacent to the tunnel hump is different and has a longer tab to help cover the tracts. They are each different, as they are for left and right side of the tunnel.

I think the photo of the right side cover is the same as the other cover shown. If so they are for the left side of the drivers seat and the right side of the front passengers seat.

Thank you both! I will take a look tomorrow. I spent two days searching the car, trying to figure it out. I started to think that maybe they are not from the LS. I did not really want to post here at first because I am not even sure they are coming from the car. But thought I should ask here before I pitch them into the trash, so I am glad I did ask!
