Zach, I accessed gmpartsdirect and partsamerica with that part number, and came up empty.
Sorry I couldn't help you.

Could it be the receiving antenna for the PKE?. Does your keyfob work?

Re: What is this? (c4cruiser)
I tried to use the part # to also no avail. The PKE works only on the drivers side not on the back or passenger side??? I am not sure if it is the antenna or maybe AM antenna but it looks too small to be an am antenna. Its plastic riveted on the back wall anyone else have any ideas???

I'd guess PKE antenna. I think I saw a picture once that showed antennea in each door and one above the gas tank.
They only have a range of something like 3'-5'.

Nope. One in each door for the vert only. The coupe has it in the drivers door and the back area by the hatch only.

Re: What is this? (Goody)
I would guess it's your PKE antenna as well. Especially since you stated that it seems to only work close to the drivers door. As stated earlier, on Coupes, there's one in the drivers door and one on the back wall.
