Can somebody tell me what is supposed to be in that hole? I can only presume a rear interior light?

Since I own an Escort and not a Fiesta,I don't know where the anthenna on Fiestas are m8... :rolleyes: On my Escort,it is roof mounted,it has a similar opening so you can put your fingers in there and perhaps attach the bolt...then you can tight it with a spanner.But it is in front,as you say,sorry my bad...some models have the antenna backwards.Mine hasn't a plastic cover,but if you take off the roof lining,there is a similar opening...further that,it could possibly fit an interior light in there,although it should have a loom plug somewhere near.Although I just realised it is in the back of the car,not in front...What's the dimensions of the opening?I thing it is a bit narrow...but i can't be sure judging from the photo...or it could be the washer jet on the outside...if it is,you should see a tube...

I'd assume someone fitted or attempted to fit a rear interior light with it that shape/size! No Fiesta came with one, they can be fitted there though.
