I lost something for my look cleat, how important is it?

So my girlfriend is buying me some new road shoes for graduating, but I can't get them until I actually finish the ceremony. So in the meantime I've bought look keo pedals and cleats.

I've just realised that I've lost a small black piece of plastic that holds a piece of rubber in place. How important is it? Or if someone has a spare they could send me I'd happily pay the postage!

    This is what Look calls a 'Position Memory' part. You can choose to stick it on your shoe so when you take the cleats off for cleaning/replacement, you can put them back on in the exact same position as they were before.

    They do not affect the working of the pedal and you can use them fine without it (I don't use it).

    Ah cool thanks. The reason I worried is because the black piece holds the rubber bit on the bottom of the cleat in place - and I thought that might have something to do with making sure the cleat doesn't move around easily on the pedal.
