Dashboard sensor's

There are 2 sensors on top of the dash. The one on the passenger side has a plastic cap. The one on the driver's side has just a metal post, I think the cap is missing. Does anyone know what it is, what it looks like, most likely a dealer part?

Thanks

The one on the drivers side is the ambient light sensor that tells the headlights to come on (if you have programmed through the DIC for the auto headlight setting)

It doesn't have a cap on it so yours isn't missing one.
