    Here you go. Thanks for your patience and otherwise.

    These objects form part of something else, the bits missing would give it away. They are a mix of rubber and plastic, once black but now dirty.

    Some of them look like they could be, but that isn't what they are here.

    They are all used at once.

    Okay, a few facts and maybe a clue.

    Four pieces shown, the two flatter ones are rubber, the others plastic. When combined with another two completely different parts they make the whole thing, the item does nothing.

    The dirt is sort of part of it's 'charm'.

    Its hard to think of something that does nothing, even a necklace adds decoration............

    Sure, but other than that, it doesn't do anything. Just take it that you're not looking for a 'functional' object :D


    EDIT:_ Just re-read the above and realised the NOT was missing, sorry.

    Marbles and sheep are funcional objects.

    Are they parts of a telescopic arm i.e for bonnets and boots?

    Oooh, now you're getting close, but it's not going on a car bonnet, a bit too special for that.

    no :mrgreen:

    It's a mount for something. Something a bit special. There were quite a few of them.

    Nope, not at all.

    and 'quite a few of them' = a very specific number.
