    Hey, I just purchased a 2014 5th Gen and noticed this in my windshield... Does anybody know what it's for?! It's a micro USB and some antenna.

    Thanks

    If it is at the passenger side back glass it may be for the antenna that is in the glass. Just assuming that year had it.

    It's on the middle of my windshield right behind my rear view mirror... The cord does run from the passenger side!

    First guess would be a dash cam!
    Follow the wires...
    It is already for you to put a camera in!
    So I hope.
    Good luck & let us know.
