What is this little pouch in my 1988?

I just bought a bone stock 1988 convertible and I found this little grey flocked vinyl pouch in the glove box with a silver MAZDA imprint at the bottom . It measures about 4" x 1.5" and has
a fold over flap at the top, Any idea what came in it?

Wheel lock key? Sunglasses?

It's way to small for sunglasses. It's only 1.5" wide when laid flat.

That's where you keep all your broken apex seals.

The BBS wrench goes in the big pouch in the trunk with the wheel chocks and lug wrench

If the car had dealer installed wheel locks, it's probably for the lug nut key.

Kind of tall for a wheel lock key bag, but it does make sense. I have never seen one of those. Ever. I'm hoping we can figure this out. Very cool find!!

Maybe some sort of little bottle of cleaner? Like for the top? Or touch up paint?

Receipt holder for all those gas stations you would visit on a hourly basis.

Since I haven't received a realistic answer yet, here's another photo showing size perspective.

I'm guessing it may have been for a tube of touch-up paint or a small tire pressure gauge ??
