I need help identifying this bracket. My mother in law hit a deer on the driver front side. I am putting everything back together and found this on the ground. Any ideas where it goes? It would be on the front area.

 

While I will still have no clue with more information, others may be able to help with the year and model of the Mazda.

Did you google the part number on the top?

 

Sorry. Its a 2011 Mazda 3i. Yes I tried looking up that number and apparently there are a bunch of parts that start with that number and none of them match it. The closes I found was hole cover. That don't tell me much.

 

Check for a slot in the hood latch and may use one of the mounting bolts there. Other areas could be over crash sensors.

 

Covers the Frontal impact sensor, on or below the bonnet catch/latch.
