I noticed a small plastic trim piece in my 2013 Santa Fe and have no clue what it’s for. Anyone know?
Is that your mic for hands-free calls?

Yeah, I used to install headliners for these cars. Those clips were terrible and broke all the time.
That’s the feds watching you.

Yep, it’s the H-Trac surveillance chip. Has video, audio, and even an electronic nose to detect all sorts of smells, including narcotics.

Bluetooth microphone for hands-free calling. Here’s an example: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/285616539818.
It’s a hand for your mic-free phone.

Appreciate the info.
Definitely a mic for hands-free calls.
It’s a magnet for your tinfoil hat while you drive around browsing this forum.

Tinfoil isn’t magnetic… unless they’ve been lying to us.

Obviously, they’ve been lying. What kind of conspiracy theorist are you? Science is just there to control us so the lizard people can rule from underground… in DC… where it gets cold every year… because we all know reptiles love the cold. Wake up, this is why they’re turning the frogs weird /s

Well, it’s not even made of tin, so they’ve definitely been lying.
Does it even matter?
That’s the ‘oh crap’ bar.
Why not just check the manual?

Maybe they bought it used and it didn’t come with a manual?
Maybe they just thought it’d be easier to ask here?
Maybe they had no clue what it was, so they didn’t even know what to search in the manual?
If you’re going to be rude, at least explain why or just ignore the post.

You’re coming off as aggressive and typed a whole essay instead of just answering, so it seems like you went out of your way to be rude.
If you really meant to suggest checking the manual, there was no need to add attitude.
This is an older car, so maybe the previous owner kept the manual. Not everyone is good at searching for info online either.
Yeah, it can be annoying seeing the same questions pop up, but shaming people for asking isn’t helpful. They didn’t know this was the mic, just like you didn’t know about lug patterns. No need to act like everyone should know everything.
