Default sensor in visor bracket?

Hello,

What is the little orange light / sensor in the passenger visor bracket?
On this picture:

It's just left of the screw.

Thanks.

Wow, it makes so little light, I didn't realize it was actually... a light!
Figured it was some sort of passenger detector for the airbag or something fancy like that
Now that I have that radar detector bracket, I think it's more of a detector light!
Thanks for the quick replies!

I put my bracket on the driver side as its too far over there. Also that orange led light can be swapped out for what ever. I went with a nice blue.

From page 3-20 of the 2006 owners manual:

An ambient light is located in the passenger sun visor
clip. This light stays on while driving to keep the
cabin from being too dark.
