I have a 2005 Mini Convertible. Today I was moving the passenger seat forward, and reaching underneath the seat for trash I came up with this part: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...3/ppuser/63489
Any idea what it is?

 

It is the x that marks the spot.lol just kidding

 

LOL. The link to the photo didn't work. So I changed it to a hyperlink.

 

looks like an extra jack point.

 

That's what I was thinking

 

Yes, that is a plastic block for the jacking points under the side sills. There should be two blocks on each side.

 

SO it shouldn't be under the seat?!!

 

no. Toe truck drivers usually remove then to flat bed a vehicle or they just fall off or get torn off from time to time. make sure you got all 4 and stick it in a drawer as a spare. they are like 25 bucks each

 

Man, I thought this was a new game someone was starting up... Whoever names that part gets to post the next one...

 

HOLY C#$%!!! That's your rear seat magnetic transducer. It keeps your rear passangers firmly planted in their seats. Make sure nobody rides in the back w/o that on.

ThomB, I like that idea. Maybe you should start that thread.

 

LOL. Not likely a problem. I'm 6' 5", I have the driver and passenger seats pushed back as far as they'll go. My backseat is useless for passengers.
