Mystery part

Hey everyone. I’m new on here and just bought a 2017 Tacoma TRD Off Road, 40k miles. It’s been very well taken care of inside and out, a great truck. I wanted to ask if anyone knew what this metal piece is inside the glove box between the door and the box. It creates a bulge when opening the door, which is annoying from a fitment standpoint. I was initially thinking it was improperly installed at the factory. My local Toyota service department doesn’t know either. Any information would be appreciated, as I am ready to figure out how to have it removed.

 

An aftermarket organizer? But what
are those silver and red striped pieces?

 

credit card?

 

OP, remove the door and see what’s stuck between there.

 

"For a Good Time Call 867 5309" card?

Looks likes somethings jammed in there to me.

 

i had a weird glare off the dash in my other car, just this little glint between the leather and plastic portions, it was a freaking hair pin that had fallen into the crevice....

 

Great song

 

the manuals

 

My guess is a name badge for work that the previous owner swore he put in the glove box that magically disappeared.

 

It's probably drugz

 

I would take the door off as previously suggested. I feel like there is some sort of tag hanging out of the glove box when the trucks are new. And the occasional “moo” sticker.

 

I remember some sort of warning sticker that was hanging out of the glove box during delivery.

 

I remember that too but olde age and memory has me stymied. I thought it was a passenger seatbelt warning tag I just pulled off???

 

I think it was some sort of airbag/passenger warning

 

Thanks for all the replies.. the pictures I posted weren’t clear enough.. it’s thin as a credit card and has some sort of writing on the bit I can see. Here’s two more pictures. Most likely I’m going to remove the door. It’s almost like a tag that’s stuck to the door.

 

can you Get in there with some needle nose pliers and yang it out

 

I wish.. it’s metal and stuck flat. Is it a pain to remove the door?

 

I keep mine in the cubby behind the drivers side back seat when the back seat is down
