				Rearview Mirror Question

				Hello, I just took my 2009 Vibe (Base Model) in to get the windshield replaced, when I got it back, I noticed it may be missing a small plastic piece from behind the mirror that covers the cables. Any chance anyone with a 09' could take a picture of behind the mirror so I can compare it to mine and see if it is in fact missing the cover, or if I am just crazy and never noticed.
Thanks!

				while I can't take a picture for you, there are actually two slender black plastic pieces that slide into one another to make one longer piece. I have mine in the work room because I removed them years ago. They don't stay on very well and really don't perform much of a positive function. They don't provide any aesthetics and you won't notice the wires after about 2 minutes. While the glass guy should have returned them to you, I'd forget about it; they are useless.

				Thanks for the picture. The piece is in fact missing, but as Caretaker said, I'm really not bothered by it.

The one on my 2006 kept falling off after the windshield replacement.   Whenever I stumble across it in my center console, I feel offended by its presence but can't get myself to toss it.
