Default What is this? And is it from my car?

Hello there,

Decided to use my pressure washer for the first time today.
I bought the thingie that helps you go into the wheel arches, etc.

So after I've done my wheel arches, I walked around the car and found this next to the front offside arch.

(uploading pictures to the forum doesn't work for me...)

I don't know if it is even from my car but as it's highly likely that it is, where would this would have been before relocating to the floor.

The car is completely standard - at least under the wheel arches.

Suggestions please?

No, Phil, IKEA do flat pack, and that is very far from being flat!

It might be IKEA, the Swedes do go a bit crazy when it comes to airbags

That's sort of what Event Mobile Tyres use, but theirs are less aesthetic.
