What is this sensor?

Hi all!
What is the nub sensor at the bottom of the rear window? Can I put a decal in front of it (like a University decal kinda thing)? Thanks much in advance!
Cheers,
Nick

Good question ... you often see a sun sensor in the front windshield area ... used by the A/C system to read and compensate for bright sunshine.

Its probably a light sensor for the auto dimming mirror. I wouldn't block it.
