Default what the heck are those?

i was rewiring my rear speakers a third time (this time they worked properly) and when i took off the plastic piece on the pillar, i noticed that there was a pair of some sort of electronic components near the top. they looked kind of like lights to me, and my brother guessed that they were microphones for the phone function in the car. any ideas as to what they are?

those look like the motion sensors for the alaram. if you were to flip over the trim in that picture you'd see three slots over each of those little sensors. I looked for a picture of them but can't find one, I'll take one on my lunch break.
