Default Found Rubber Piece

I found this rubber thing on the floor of my JK awhile back. I didn't think much of it at the time, but now I have a hell of a rattle somewhere behind or in the area of my glove box. I don't recall what side of the Jeep I found it on. I can't seem to figure the rattle out. Anyone recognize this thing?

Sorry I can't help you, but if you wait enough you will probably find another one with all the pot holes we have!

looks like a push-in isolator of some sort. kinda like the rubber feet on a compressor mounting plate. i bet if you located the noise and looked around a bit, you'd find a hole that that little bugger plugs right on in to. couldn't tell you where it may have come from tho. might want to try pulling the glove box and poking around a bit

That's actually off of your glove box. There are two of them on the inner top edge of the glove box door which are meant to stop the box ratteling. You're either missing one (the one pictured and found on the floor) or both.
