Leftover Part

[swodo]

Put floorboards on my 2015 F3 (manual) today. Easy installation, but found this on the floor when I was done. Wasn't there when I started, I think.

Does anyone have any idea what it is? The top is marked lock/unlock. Looks vaguely familiar.

Also the BRP floorboard kit came with a shorter shift pedal. Why? Can I use the stock longer pedal?

I can't help with your extra part, but I can help with the shifter. The shorter shifter allows shifter peg to end up on the top of your foot. You can use the longer shifter, but the shift peg will end up at your toes. You'll need to stretch out your leg to have the peg at the top of your foot.
I didn't like the short shifter because you lose leverage. The shifts are harder- less fine and smooth. It was also harder to get neutral.

I modified mine so I could use a shift lever with the longer leverage, but peg ends up on the top of my foot. It wasn't easy, but it turned out great and it shifts like it did with the stock pegs and longer shifter.

Here's a picture:

That looks like one of the grabbers for the plastic pan pieces under the engine.
