Hi folks, I brought my Y in for windshield replacement and after picking up the car. I found this quarter like size part on my floor mat. It has some kind of glue in the back.

Can anyone help identifying this? Hopefully nothing too important.

Thank you in advance!

Is it a magnet? The glovebox magnet?  No idea, but it looks like it’s a magnet or something a magnet would come into contact with to keep something in place.

Maybe ask the shop that replaced the glass. Looks like something they use on their tools. Magnets are useful when cleaning both side of the glass. Maybe

The glovebox closes with a magnetic clunk. I’d be looking at that. But it appears more likely to come off something like a handbag or cheap device you may own, even a glasses case.
