What is this?
I was looking at how I can mount a new air collector though the front radiator support for cooler when I see this behind the driver headlight and grille. Any ideas?

Copy & paste, the link will work then.

Anyway...going to hazard a guess, it looks like a plug for fog lights that has a cover on the plug itself, but I'm not really sure.
