The alloy bits look those I removed from under the front windscreen suround of my saloon - as Pat says the others look like dired up indicator lenses!
However there is no scale indication so the 3 pieces also look like D post/rear wheel arch trims which can only be seen with seat out. As to the other bits are they furtex covered? Cannot see what they cover though?

The three items to the left is vinyl covered metal. The four to the right is made of some kind of thick paper and covered with moquette or furtex. I think they fit somewhere on the front seat but I can not find where.

The four items to the right look identical to the carpet covered covers that fit over/hide the front seat runners on a P6 Rover. I have never had the seats out of my P5 so can't say whether these are fitted on a P5 or not. Are you sure they are out of a P5?

The blocks are not out of a P5 Coupe Mk2 or a V8 - I do think they may be a seat runner cover if they are of that scale? I do not know about P6's
As I said the vynil trims look like item 10 on page 1908 of the parts list which is part of the harness cover - a P5's and P5B saloons/coupe have these but often they are left off by restorers as the D post rusting makes them disappear - they cannot be seen when the seat is back in

Thanks all
I don´t know if it is from a P5. I bought my coupé from a widow. The re-trim of the car had been aborted, so I got a lot of parts in a box, I just trying to figure out where everything fit.
Phil I think you are right about part no 10 on page 1908, I also got two part no 11, I think the moquette covered boxes are seat runner cover, but I can not figure out where they fit, maybe they are to a P6 ? But I got them in a box with my coupé and they are the right color.

 I have never seen the seat rail covers in any P5 and P6 used the same type trim and colours -I could actually see how they would fit though - DF has a Mk2 Coupe like mine - has his got them

Good question Phil. I was going to get my car out to use this weekend on a run today and with a view to checking it out tomorrow, but the weather turned foul so its still tucked away in the dry.
I will see if I can get over to it in the next week or so and do a check.

Had a second look at your picture on a bigger scale and I would say they are defintely the aforementioned seat runner trims from a P6. I've had a couple of P6's in the past. You can unbolt the seat to fit shims under the runners to adjust the seat height. These carpet trims go between the runners/shims and the floor pan. The seats in the P6 were of the lighter weight design as found in mk3 P5's and later, nothing like the huge, heavy items in mk 1 & 2 models.

Strange they never used them on Mk3's onwards - I would hardly call those seats lightweight, later P5B's were a little lighter wityh the thinner backs

I had a look in my P6 (3500) parts book (page 1625) and it looks like
the seat runner covers. But I am confused, what are they doing in my box with trim parts to a Mk II coupé?
