Mystery Rubber triangle in Engine Bay

[AndyGTi]

Hi Guys

Wondered if you can help. I washed the car today and for only second time I had the bonnet open to do a little cleaning around the edge of bay and lights. I was wiping over the air intake section at front and something moved. it turned out to be a rubber triangle. No sign of where it might have come from or any way of fixing to car or ship.

I haven't left it in engine bay (as basic knowledge tells ne something loose in engine bay is a receipt for disaster. I have kept it, pending any reveraltion to the expenditure.

It's a rubber wedge/spacer often used when fitting new windscreens > https://www.eurocarparts.com/search/NOR ... eMQAvD_BwE

@ POLO Clive Many thanks for identifying it and interesting its for new windscreens. I'll take a look to see if My screen looks original.

Bit bad for it to be left in engine bay but really glad I opened bonnet to give it a quick wipe and found this.
