Rear Vent Slots?

Does anyone know what these little slots are in the rear cargo area? They look like some sort of vent, or like a speaker where the government can listen in on us... Oh wait, that'd be a microphone...



I think in my Dad's Tahoe there is something to do with the rear A/C heat blower and stuff, but our HHRs dont have that...

I'm just curious. Never noticed them before, but I was cleaning out the HHR from the Florida trip. Man, that sand is going to be in there for as long as I own the car!

Sand has a habit of doing that.

I believe they are part of the flow through ventilation

They are for ventilation to the electronics that are behind that plastic. My OnStar, Cellular & XM radio are in that location.

Actually, they really are microphones, designed by GM to allow you to hear a tree falling in the woods, even though no-one is around to hear it.

Speed holes. Makes you go faster. Oh wait, they are MPG holes, make you get better MPG by making the car lighter.
