She made it!

Eight days from WA to MI...but she is now home.

A bit dusty, but otherwise in great shape...

I noticed a noise when I opened and closed the trunk lid. Found these two little varmints running around in the inner structure of the trunk lid...any ideas what they are for?

Or just a line worker joke?

Congrats! Those aren't too uncommon in/on vehicles. Assembly line workers will put parts on the car when they have a break, go to lunch, or go home for the day to remind them where they left off. Sometimes they forget that they put parts on the car and the parts are destined to forever live inside your vehicle and mock you with their rattle. Fortunately the extra parts you found were in an area that was accessible. Also, make sure you look around to see if the nuts don't belong somewhere on the vehicle.

Looks good! I see you're in the Brighton area. I'm in Fenton which is like 15 miles from you. Just sold my 2018 RS V6 for this 2017 3.0t AWD MKZ that I have now. Still have my built SS though. You should check out the Camaro Superfest this summer now that you're in Michigan

Those look like nuts for the taillight attachment bolts to me, check behind the liner if all 3 nuts per taillight are installed.

Worst service manual diagram ever, but see those tiny red markers below, they're the nut locations behind the liner and the taillights.

Hey guys, thanks for the comments.

To clarify, I have been here (in Brighton) almost 20 years. I bought the car from my cousin, who lives in WA state, and had it shipped.

I am really hoping that Lingenfelter will bring back Cars and Coffee this year. Really enjoyed those gatherings pre-Covid.

Those nuts look like the ones that secure the spoiler studs. Mine on delivery had them loose and floating around too. Fished mine out with a magnet tool.
