Those look exactly like the sound deadening plugs I bought for my Odyssey, they go underneath the car on the underside of the doors (where the jack is set for jacking).There are holes that should match the same size.....I could be wrong, but they are identicle

Why they are magic beans Jack.

Actually not sure about the four things, but I know the other thing is a ruler.

They're the plugs that go into the tie down holes underneith the car. Your dealer should have installed the plugs as part of the pre-delivery inspection process.

Thanks!

Acura of Springfield did a horrible job of preppping the car:
Tire pressure was 44 all around.
No checklist.
Only 3/4 tank of fuel
Plugs not installed- actually I'm surprised they didn't toss them!

You should reflect those points on the survey you get after delivery. I'm assuming you'll get one as I got mine just last Friday for my delivery of two weeks ago. You might want to check the listing in this thread to see if they missed anything else:

https://acurazine.com/forums/showpos...5&postcount=40

It's a great list - I basically memorized it before I went to pick up my car to make sure all of it was done lol! My delivery was actually very good - I was quite impressed. Hope ya get this rectificed but most importantly I hope ya enjoy the new TL .

Great Info! Thanks- now I know where they go and can check the other items.

Really sad the Acura of Springfield did such a shoddy job...

Yes those are the underbody plugs and should have been installed by the dealer during PDI. If you're not sure of where they go just go back and explain to them that they weren't installed and should have been during the PDI. They will take care of it.
