so,

Can anybody tell me what this is and what it does?

It is on both the left and right sides of the rear hatch (picture of right side when facing the hatch)

It appears to be a cable attached to a stripped out plastic locking mechanism on one end (it says lock) and nothing on the other.

Thanks!

Justin

 

Not sure...how about a better wider angle pic

 

Prolly something to do w/ a rear window louver.... and yeah, take a better pic!

 

Here is a more wide angle pic.
I posted the last pic because it showed the piece more clearly.
The circled part is the part that is shopwn in the abve picture.

Thanks!

 

Yeah...I think it was part of a louver...looks like mine...I will put up a pic tomorrow if you like.

 

Yep. Louver piece.

 

nooo its a piece of louver not a louver piece!!
