Hi Josh, and welcome to the forum. You would be referring to one of the parts occupying the couple of inches of space between the lock cylinder on the left and the switch body on the right, eh? This diagram is from the Ford manual for the '97 Thunderbird but unfortunately they don't identify that part. It isn't referred to in the text either but I can post the accompanying text if you want to read it anyway - it's the removal and installation instructions for the switch.
