    Those are just body plugs, the plastic one if from the factory hole used in a welding jig, and the second is suppose to be a drain hole. The 3rd picture, is a tag that comes with the carpet when it was installed at the factory.

    The steel plug is to close up a jig fixture hole used when the floor pan is assembled and as a drain hole...the old primer dip excess had to drain somehow.
    I only see 3 pics Dave :hmmm:
    Oh!! I get it now...duh...no can reed goood.
    The rubber one is also a fixture plug and a grate place to shoot undercoat/rust inhibiter inside the front frame rails if thats where that plug is anywhoo.(usually see 2 of those over each frame rail)

    Sorry, Dave.....you are wrong on the 3rd picture. :D

    It is the paper backing for the tire pressure sticker. I have found them in cars I have parted out....usually under the carpet.

    Those drains in the floor boards are for one purpose only.
