When I was disassembling my iPhone 4S a small gold part fell out.

[iMore Question]

It is gold, looks like a connector with two prongs, that attaches to one of the screws (?). I think it came from the lower right corner somewhere (if you are looking at the back of the phone). Can anyone tell me where the part goes so I can put my phone back together? Help! I think it came from the lower right corner somewhere (if you are looking at the back of the phone).

Can you take a pic of it, so members that do repair can see exactly what you're referring to? Or you might want to just take it to Apple or find an authorized repair shop.
