It bolts to a plate above the front tow eye and I am guessing that the arrow is there to make sure it is pointing ahead?? Doesn't slot in to anything.

Also no screens in the car, its a HSE.

Thanks for suggestions

Could be a speed trap Laser/Radar warning receptor, if this is the case it's probably accompanied by a buzzer and/or a LED warning light inside the cabin or something like that. Supporter and maintainer of EDF - Mrs Edfors' shopping cart.

Think you got it!!
There is a tiny red led just left of the binnicle, always wondered what it did. Never seen it flash or heard a buzzer so presume its no longer working. Would have been handy

Thought the barcode scanner was a great idea, sadly it comes up as a "A312498"

Exactly what it says under the barcode lol

Took it apart and to me looks like it could be a radar detector.

Going to give it a go with contact cleaner and toothbrush, reassemble and see what happens
