there is also a funny thing that looks like a speaker or a vent on my headliner in the center. i haven't taken a pic of it yet.
Up in the center of the liner? That's a motion detector for the security system.
Set the controls for the heart of the sun
Is it the same color as your headliner and covered in the same cloth? If yes, then as mentioned above...that's your IMS (interior motion sensor)...which is located under the cover.
Take note in the info below on how to DISABLE the IMS. It may be needed if you leave people or a pet in your car and you lock the doors with the remote or driver's door lock cylinder (which enables DWA)...or you lock the vehicle and you leave a window or sunroof cracked open. If the IMS is enabled...30 seconds after locking the door...a pet or passenger locked in the vehicle will set off the alarm and lights and wont be able to get out of the vehicle. Or if parked on the street or a driveway and a window is cracked or sunroof is opened...any movement near the open window/sunroof can also set off the alarm and lights.

Aquilla bought a red wagon last yearbwith all kinds of "extra" bits inside. Thing looked like it was made for the Stazi. The driver's area is basically normal but the front and rear passenger areas were set to do radio work from within a rolling vehicle.
Pretty neat stuff, these "special cars" can't wait to see one on BAT where it becomes the new "m-sport" and gets surper desirable.
Keep 'em clean and happy boys and girls.
