I have been out and inspected the offending area on my car and it's not there!

hang on a mo, mines an 08 MY and they must have fixed it after they noticed it on the earlier models and wondered what it was?

Looks like a mounting bracket for something - that hasn't been mounted.

Maybe they were going to fit a comedy horn but forgot?
