    This is the part that allows you to access the battery ground strap under your headlight It makes the battery really easy to remove without having to try and remove the 10 mm nut on the battery terminal because it's oriented sideways here you just stick your 10 mm socket on a 6-in quarter drive extension and apply the ratchet remove the bolt drop it in the battery well then undo the positive terminal and the plugs and lift the battery out leave the bolt in the well until you get back with the new battery so you know where the bolt is Just remember to pick it up before you set the battery in the well so you don't have to pick the battery up again while you're in the battery well you want to push out the rubber plugs so water doesn't sit in the battery well if you have a winter and freeze

    A big spiel that does not answer the question asked. LOL.

    What's missing is the rear light cluster bulb access cover. Although it is removable, as it is attached via studs, it looks like the cover and the board are one part.

    The part is called No. 3 Rear Floor Board.

    The part numbers are:

    58490-47020-A1 IVORY, TRIM0# (08/2003 - 11/2005)
    58490-47020-B1 MD.GRAY, TRIM1# (08/2003 - 11/2005)
    58490-47020-B1 MD.GRAY, TRIM1# (11/2005 - 03/2009)
    58490-47020-E0 GREGE, TRIM4# (11/2005 - 03/2009)

    You should probably call around local wreckers/dismantlers and get one in good condition that matches your trim colour.

    It looks like this:

    Front : Cover Front.JPG

    Back:
    Cover Back.JPG

    The number you see stamped on the back is a manufacturing number, not a part number even though the format of this number is the same as used for part numbers. Very confusing to the uninitiated.
