The light plastic piece is a broken seat belt hook and is stock. The orange piece of plastic is unknown and not stock. _________________ "Someday the world is gonna be populated by nothing but Volkswagens'" Corporal Klairvoy |

They're beer can holders that used to be hooked over the door and into the window of a standard car. Someone wanted to remove the flat hooks and lacked any motor skills- so they used a drill to make a bunch of connecting holes before snapping the rest off.
They both used to have a partial L-shaped base and a full beer-circumference plastic ring. But alas, both were snapped apart by the legs of two unsuspecting rear passengers- who likely never knew they'd bleed profusely that gorgeous spring day.

Nah, safety orange screams flare gun mount.
But probably some sort of safety/emergency kit. _________________ Everybody born before 1975 has a story, good, bad, or indifferent, about a VW.
