i was cleaning out my trunk and i came across this blue plastic cover.

That really doesn't look like a plastic Lexus part...just about all of Toyota/Lexus plastic is going to be black in color, so could this be from something else???

Look for a part number somewhere on this piece, if you don't see a number like xxxxx-xxxxx, than it might not be from your car...

Did you have an audio system installed? Looks very familiar but I cant pinpoint it. I believe I saw something like that when I was running my wires.

My trunk has been apart a couple of times and I don't recall seeing anything that looks like that.

I've taken apart my car a few times and I've never seen that before unless its for the amp. From what it looks like it's just a cover from a wiring harness.

I'm thinking it's not from the trunk, or else it's something underneath the carpet lining. Any plastic piece visible in the trunk would be black.


Quick Reply: I found this plastic bracket in my trunk can someone tell me what it is ?
