I was trying to pull the bottom panel off of my lower dash under steering wheel and a piece just broke off and fell. I dont not know how to upload pics, but I took some pics and can email them to someone if they give me their email.

The PEICE= Curled steel/metal 2 loops then it goes to a right angle 90 degrees. It fell from center underneath the dash.

Does anyone have any idea what it is / or how F*cked I am?

PLEASE HELP!!!!

sending now, thanks

 

It just looks like a spring, i don't know what it goes to though - obviously your car will still function fine - don't worry too much.

 

thanks for posting the pics and help

 

any other help/suggestions would be great!

 

I think there are two of these under the steering column (I've had that panel off a bunch of times); I used them to route wires so they could not become entangled in the steering shaft. AFAIK, the don't have to move or do anything. Hope that helps - look under there at where the other one attaches and see if you think it is a piece you will really need (but I doubt it).

 

thanks for the hlep, drove it today on the highway for 20 min was fine, didnt notice anything, hopefully it was nothing to important

 

Just had mine off today! They are just vaccum line holders for the crusie control they just support the vaccum line no big deal you still have one more or should! just make sure that the vaccum line isn't hanging near anything sharp!

 

okay thanks
