Default Mystery parts need identification (new guy)

I have a 1984 928s auto.
After repairing speedometer issues these parts were found under the driver seat. I was wondering where they went or if they were even for my car. after searching the web and the Porsche PET I was unable to find anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There is a Quarter in the lower portion of the image for size representation.

I maybe wrong; but I remember seeing those white spacers on the rear center console they help hold down the bolts to the console.

No clue on the white part, but the black one resembles an old shaft style radio shaft sleeve. Set them aside just in case... but trust me, there will be plenty of other things to puzzle and worry about! Welcome aboard!

White piece holds the upper rear seat portion to the chassis.
If it is not in there the seat upper can make noise.

You will need to remove the upper part to reinstall.

The black piece is not something I have seen on any of these cars.

The black piece looks like it could be a retaining washer for the steering column, but I'm pretty sure that has a small lip around one end to hold it place.

I thought about that too, but from the pic I think it is too small.
