Hey guys....

I have noticed a device on my windshield, inside at very top of window just below headliner at passenger's visor.

The device is a black strip stuck to the window w/ a wire going from it into the headliner.

Anyone else have this?

Anyone know what it is?

 

Without looking at the shop manual, I would guess that it's a temperature sensor for the climate control

 

P.s. My brother says his '03 doesn't have it.....

 

It's a tracking device installed on all 04 vehicles and above.

Direct order from Wubbya!

 

a tracking device???kidding, right????

 

Nope.. Haven't you heard of the ITDR Act (Import Tracking Device Requirement Act)???










jk ... No. We don't have factory installed tracking devices installed. (that we know of )

 

those wires are for your rearview mirrors. right?

 

Anyone else know about this topic?

 

That is the wires for the autodiming mirror and the homelink which comes with all the gs that had the premium pack

 

that makes sense, except, how would a sensor on the front window effect the autodiming mirror? If you look close the dimming only happens when bright lights are behind you, not infront on you.
Not to say your wrong, just seems odd....

Any other thoughts? or confirmations?

 

it's the wire that powers your autodimming/homelink mirror. i know this because i don't have the premium package and thus no autodimming/homelink mirror. when i got the x50, i found i could not hardwire it to the mirror itself like others could because no wire powers it there.
