    Hello all! I’m new to the forum. Two months ago I picked up a new 5th Gen 2024 4Runner TRD Pro. Today I found this part underneath the front passenger seat. Can you guys help me identify what it is and how to put it back?

    They're the door edge guards. They put 'em on 4runners when they're in transit-being shipped.

    Thank you brother! I never bothered to check until I lost a bottle cap underneath the seat lol. I suppose those guard were supposed to be removed but one went underneath the seat. So originally they were supposed to be on the door edge? Asking because in case more of them were left on in nonobvious spots lol.

    They usually put 1, sometimes 2 per door. So you could have 4 - 8 of them total. The "Make ready" porter guy at the dealership probably dropped one and couldn't find it because it rolled under the seat. No biggie.

    There's only two spots to check: Under the drivers seat. Under the passengers seat.
