Default Name this part

I have just posted about my latest little fiddling project; opening up the antenna motor and installing an antenna switch.

When I was done I had one part left. I found this somewhere behind the front seats. No idea where it is from . It could have been there from way before.




It says:

ABS
414 3204
Jaguar

I Googled it, but nothing came up, that would sense.

Does anybody have any idea where it goes?

I'd go with: A cover, which goes onto your interior rear-view-mirror... (where the mirror is attached to the windscreen).
(...and I assume you know that ABS in this context means: Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene - it is a specific kind of plastic).

Come on Peter, let’s get serious, who would not know that?

Great that your plastic cover found its home again...

...anyone, who attended a course of manufacturing with plastics at uni...
But seriously: Most plastic parts should have a stamp, detailing which kind of plastic it is, for recycling purposes.
