    I've lost track of what this piece is... Can someone remind me? It's about 2"x3".

    I didn't have anything like that in my kit. Maybe a new version of the door latch spacers?

    I have the same thing in my box of unused parts. I don't remember ever seeing anything like it in the manual. I have no idea.

    If that's a new version of the door latch spacers, (1) should be two of them, (2) should be the same size, and holes line up, with the door latches.

    I don’t know what it is but I know what it isn’t...it isn’t a door latch spacer.

    I think you are correct, but I don't immediately see the benefit.

    Thank you all for your help.

    Pretty sure it’s FFR’s fix for the deflection of the bracket when pushing the clutch pedal.

    Ah ok, that make sense now I also got one and it was in the bag of pedal box components. I didn't see it called out anywhere in the assemble manual.
    Thanks!
