What is this?

As I fired up my ‘99 a few days ago to go to the airport, I felt something hit my foot. It was 4:00 am and dark outside so I didn’t bother looking. By the time I got to the airport it was light out and I found this piece. I’m assuming it came from somewhere around the steering column.
Also, occasionally when I start the engine there is like a popping noise, and it happened that time too.
Any ideas?

It's a trim clip. It usually stays in place on the plastic protrusions of trim pieces. I think the trim piece by the driver's knees has those pieces. They also are up on other trim pieces in the gauge cluster, the key ring etc

Thanks, does anyone have any ideas about this popping sound when I start it up?
