What are these?

Info: Car is a 2009 ford fiesta style.

The one on the left is a fresh find on the passenger seat floor last night. Looks like a bit of trim from somewhere. I've had a look and can't see where, yet. I suspect somewhere around the glovey as I has to take that down last night to check the fuse box. Any ideas where it's fell off from?

The one on the right has been in and around me boot for years. Possibly not of vehicular-origin and just some kind of funnel for a petrol can, tormenting me all this time? Either that or me grease monkey uncle has been up to his unorthodox repairs at some point and said nowt.

You fellas are wasted on here, ta.

Having only ever looked at the black one in the dark of the boot full of confusion then lashed it back in disgust, I hadn't noticed the embossed writing on it. Didn't even bother looking at the other bit properly either.

Thanks all. Heroes ...

Thanks for the photos Sheamus - I geeked out a little looking at the manufacturers date stamp, they were made in October 2008.

Haha, yeah. I geeked out a bit myself there too.

I knew the AA man (starter motor went last night) had left that other bit of trim inside me car and said nothin about it to me. It's the front bumper towing eye cap, a la:

Knowledge of my own car has increased about 30% tonight.

I think the one on the right is for the footwell cooling, so air goes through that pipe when you put the blowers on feet.

Yep you're right. It doesn't seem very secure whenever I place it back where it lives so it keeps falling down - I think it's a fairly common issue. I love how working class cheap fords are and it encourages me to have a go clipping bits on and off and doing loads of repairs myself. But fk me do some things feel cheap
