Default Help Identifying part

Hey guys, was hoping someone could help me identify the plastic insert that attaches to the rear seat hook. I removed my rear seats to add a USB charging port to the center plastic so my rear passengers could stop bothering me to charge their phones hahaha. Thanks in advance!

First of all, having a charging port in the back seat is a nice idea, and should not be too hard to implement.
On the other hand, the RC (the C stands for Coupe) is a car that seldom sees a passenger in the back seat, and never for the length of time to drain a phone battery. Still, maybe the kids in car seats might need to power up their iPads.
Keep us informed of how the project progresses.

Awesome! Thank you so much! I've been looking for this part all day yesterday online and hating myself for accidentally throwing it out.

I'll make a write up once I'm done. The weird plastic center piece in the back currently serves no purpose, so seems like something interesting to add. Was thinking of both a USB 3.0 charging ports at 2A+ and also a hidden Qi charger for the flat portion...
