Outside mirror clear lense
The outside mirrors each have a large clear plastic assembly that contains the amber LED turn signals but those turn signals only occupy about 3/4 inch of the clear plastic area. Above the turn signal LEDs the plastic curves upward and toward the rear and has visible deep V shaped grooves. These grooves are not cut to be reflectors as shining a bright light on them, even in total darkness, does not return much reflected light.
What is this clear plastic area above the turn signal LEDs for? I have not found any reference to an option or other use in either the USA user's manual or the online reference manual.

Strange that the designer thought that would enhance the looks. Thanks for the feedback.
