Hi Yes this is all part of climate control, it is an ultra violet sensor that detects sunlight and and adjustments via the computer kick in.

I wonder how many non scorpio owners walk past one in a car park and wonder what it is? If I had a quid for every time someone in my car has asked what it is i'd be rich!  (well, id have at least a fiver anyway)

And I'd have 3 quid!  I think most people assume its some sort of alarm thing. Like an aftermarket jobby.  Sad

Well, I was going to say stop putting your leaking coffee cup there and clean your dash off, but the UV sensor is really interesting. Cool!  
 
Can I get one?
