Little black box......
There is this little black box behind the rear view mirror, but can't figure out what it is. I have had the vette for 4 years now and still can't figure it out. Does anybody else have this in their vette?

Does it have a light sensor in it?

That is the flux capacitor for the time machine! :lol: :lol:
No, actually it probably is the optical sensor for the dimming feature for the lights.

Our only optical sensor in the early C4s is in the dash cluster that I know of.

I am pretty sure that the only one is the one on the cluster.
On the side that faces the windshield it looks like a sensor.

Tell us more: any electrical wires, *****, switches, lights; what shape and approximate dimensions? :confused:
Oh, and don't listen to Sharky Guam, everyone knows the Flux Capacitor is located in the hatch behind the seats. :D

Sounds like an aftermarket antenna to me.

Re: Little black box...... (StealDads67)
One of the things that I think it might be is the antenna for the alarm that was in the car when I got it. I was just wondering if it was in other vettes before I rip it out. I will try to take a pic of it tomorrow.
