    the low resolution and crummy focus is preventing proper identification!

    i bet one can google for the numbers if one could actually read it!

    maybe we can send the pic to the fbi or nasa to have it digitally enhanced!

    Seriously, this thingy near the HV battery is one of the "In-Cabin Antennas" for the Smart Key System(SKS).

    Another SKS in-cabin antenna is located between the front seats.

    It's a Smart Key oscillator. There are 5 total throughout the car.

    Does it have Toyota logo?
    My bet is it's not Toyota parts, poorly installed.
