Mark426 Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 I believe its the antenna for the GPS device that the NSA installed in all recent US automobiles. I removed mine the same day I removed my implant. JAZ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riddley Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 (edited) funny you mentioned that, i was pushing on it last night - i noticed the drivers doesn't have it. how about take a hammer to it and report back your results ;) :confused: This reminded me of a true story a friend told me about what happened to him last weekend. He was in his garage and picked up a bin to move it - it was the top item in a stack of things. Under the bin was a hammer, which fell and landed square on his foot. In frustration he picked up the hammer and proceeded to look for a place to fling it. He mentioned actually thinking... no, that way and I'll break a window... etc. Anyway, he ended up flinging it behind him into a darker other corner of the garage. Unfortunately, in that corner was an old riding lawn mower. It hit the tire at just the wrong angle, and came flying back at him and struck him on the back of the head. He was later seen entering the living room of his house with a t-shirt covered in blood to ask his wife to take him to the emergency room. I think it resulted in 7 stitches. He showed me the doctor's handiwork. When he was relaying this tale to me a few days later, he had me in stitches. I nearly blew a gasket, I was laughing so hard. In fairness - he was laughing too as he was telling the tale - so I don't think I was being overly insensitive. But anyway - be careful with those hammers. I know I've started to eye them suspiciously lately. Edited May 7, 2013 by Riddley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zhackwyatt Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 Whsts the plastic nipple on the bottom of the passenger side mirror? What's the purpose?I see that a lot. I think my explorer's headlights have nipples. (That is not supposed to be joke, I'm serious. :) ). I wonder if it has something to do with molding process.

RachelnLa Posted May 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Funny. My husband kept assuring me the guys on the board would KNOW what I meant when I said nipple. Then I looked at him with a scrunched up nose and said, "they are GUYS!!" Jus-A-CMax 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jus-A-CMax Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 O'rely...is someone afraid to say "nipple"? Nipple...NiPpLe..nIPPle...NiPpLe.... :sing_rain: On a more serious note, I emailed my Galpin Service Manager, he's does not have any idea what that nipple rubber bit is either, He's searched the manual he did not come up anything. He thinks its a pivot point. If anyone has more success, let us all know what this NIPPLE thing is...or is that nipple...NipplE..... :hysterical: :stirpot: RachelInLA... :woot: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'13cmax Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) Per the 2013 C-Max Service Manual, "Due to the location of the Ambient Air Temperature (AAT) sensor in the RH exterior mirror area...". Hope this helps :) Edited May 11, 2013 by '13cmax RachelnLa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
