Just curious, as obviously the hold through the floor pan is leading "outside" so maybe this is quite a damp area (hence the lack of carpet)

(My XC60 is 20K miles, 3.5 years old)

Thanks in advance.
Mine is exactly the same minus the rust. Although the carpet surface does not go up that far it is not metal but a thick flexible underlay that you can see.

The steering column link is movable so maybe that is why there is no cover also you can't see it unless you are laying on the floor.

My car is 18 months old and if you had not mentioned it I would never have seen it as it is completely out of sight unless you get down on the floor.
