small part identification

hello everyone,

I recently replaced the radio and the carpet in my 1991 240 which obviously requires seat removal. Several months went by before I could finish the job. I was left with two of the small spacer looking objects in the photo. Any ideas of that they are for? Thanks.

On front side of seats' mounting rails, after removing those two nuts, and maybe loosening rear bolts, one lifts rail upwards enough to insert those in threaded-stud.

Function - To grasp/hold carpet down.

These are the ones for holding down the carpet. So are there multiple carpet holders? I wish I labeled everything but didn't think it was going to take as long as it did to get it done.

Yes, Correct...I thought maybe a different style.

Only part I can find via Volvo is this:

1246966 Insulating mat transmission tunnel rear

But, their diagram seems not in sync with what they are saying... I've seen this part number come up as a clip, and as a mat
