Does anyone know what the black spots are on the windshield near the rear-view mirror? I have searched and cannot find out.

I assume they are there as a sun-block ... to prevent that horrible glare that comes in around the rear-view mirror.

Yes. The block the sun in the space inbetween the sunvisors when they are both down.

Ther is also a "Stripe" of these "Dots" along the passenger side edge of the windshield.

Yes, that "stripe" has mystified me too.

The stripe on the passenger side is very common on alot of cars. My old Pontiac had them around every non-moveable window. The thing that makes the Vibe different is that there is no-stripe on the driver side. This was done because the light sensor is on that side of the dash and the dot-stripe would cause more shadows over it.
