Default Funny ariel thing

Hey guys,
I'm breaking a Saloon 2004 Diesel 75.
Now, when I say Breaking, I mean down to the shell.
So ... I gave myself a challenge to remove the loom in one piece. On doing the drivers door I found what I can only think is an ariel built into the rubber seal.

Any idea what that is for?

Sorry David but I can't resist the temptation!



Is there any chance you can post one please? It would be enormously helpful.

Is it not the anti-trap for the electric window?

ROFL ... yeah, I was thinking of it, but it just looks like a wire with a bit of rubber over it.

Though I think Picky may be right ... I didn't know there WAS and anti-trap! Wow!
