Can anyone answer this question????????

If you go look at your dash from outside the car specifically where the windsheild vent is, you should notice something that looks like a little ball. It's located on the driver side of that vent. I noticed it and wondered "What the hell is that"?. Sorry I would've taken some pics but it's freezing out. Does anybody have any idea what that is?

LOL relax bud. If you were here you wouldn't want to go outside either. I won't be holding my breath for you to remember, I just wanted to see if anyone knows what that is right off the bat.

Hmmm. I know that on a corolla that bubble is used to turn the headlights on at night. When it doesn't get any sunlight it will automatically turn them on.

Probably an access hole for an option your car doesn't have, maybe on the Hybrid or cars with SATNAV
