Anyone know what this little sucker hidden at the bottom of the radiator grill is? I suspect it's the outside air temperature sensor but would like confirmation. (I'm one of those guys who likes to know what things do).
And for those eagle eyed amoungst you - I know it needs a wash!

Sorry - I do normally search before posting daft questions but got carried away. I'll try harder next time - honest.
Thanks for the confirmation anyway.
