loose switch in glove box. Do you know what for?

I found this switch in my glove box and I have no idea what it is for. I've looked around for a place it could screw in to but cannot seem to find anything.

I'm trying to get everything back to stock or as close as possible. Thanks

Brake light switch on pedal? Interior light door switch?

Just guessing here...

Is the interior light switch different than the door jamb switch for the buzzer?
Brake lights work.

Does your glove box have a light come on when you open? If not possibly that switch? Looks similar I think.

I spaced the E-brake switch. Good thinking Dis. I'd bet that's it.
