Help Identifying Part

I found this on my footwell this night:





I figure it fell from the dash but not specifically sure where. Has anyone seen this before and can help me put it back where belongs?

 

I vaguely remember it’s something about a spring on the brake or clutch pedal assembly.

 

I have an autotragic so no clutch. Brake perhaps?

 

Might be a sleeve of some kind on the brake pedal pivot. Is it greasy?

Or the parking brake arm..

 

Not greasy. It looks to be a grommet, but odd that it just fell out.

 

Did you add any electrical modifications?
If so, I’d backtrack those.

 

It's a noise damper that goes inside the brake pedal spring.

TW never fails!

 

This thing is actually quite hard to put back!

 

So after seeing all similar issues, This must be something common, thought i was losing my mind when i found mine, just like you did in the floor board (thinking wth is this thing)?? So i was digging around on here and discovered this awesome post! Thank you sir for posting as well, now i gotta fix mine hopefully soon!

 

Funny, I found one those on my floorboard a couple of weeks ago …of course I probably threw it away cuz I know what it is now.

Who needs ai when TW can tell you the answer before you ask the question…
Just couple a months ago I had a sound coming from the passenger side firewall that sounded like sand sliding across a bucket filled with water, without giving it much thought I see a fresh post about the issue on here 10 minutes later.

 

Well I haven’t had a chance to put mine back in but I did read that it’s possible that it might fall out again. So what im thinking is when i do get mine back in there I’m goin to put a bit of black silicone on the edge/side to hopefully secure it to the tube from falling out again (worth a shot) anyways.
