I just got a delorean and found these parts sitting in the glovebox and would like some help identifying them. Dont mind the little thing in the top left corner, I didnt realize it was still on the table

Left to right.

Trunk light fixture, RPM relay, round thing is probably the trim cap that covers the seat belt bolt below the rocker panel, and something that isn't a car part.

Looks like a tire valve extender. Good thing to keep in the glove box, sometimes you can't get the tire pump onto our short valve stems.

Good catch!

Good catch!

Only because I keep one in the glove box also.

From the size of the cap next to the RPM relay I'd say it's probably the blanking cap for one of the seat recline knobs. Part #101215 No longer available. Check your seats as it probably fell off exposing the retaining nut.

Agreed - it seems a bit squared off for the seat belt cap. Hard to tell in photos sometimes.

After looking at it, I think it's maybe a bit too shallow to be this, but the first thing to come to my mind was the wiper fluid reservoir cap:

Likely one of the things you guys mentioned though (unless he flips it over and it has threads on the underside).

I misplaced the piece earlier, but the trunk light being taken out led to us figuring out the that engine bay light and driver's door lights were all disconnected.

I won it. But I wasn't a vendor at the time.

Just a tip. You may want to eventually use that "bad" RPM relay as a core to get a solid state version from Bitsyncmaster. In any event don't throw it away!

It might also not be bad. If the PO didn't have the car running well in the areas you've mentioned in your other thread, who is to say he knew how to diagnose a bad RPM relay.
