Just out giving the car clean and took off number plate.

What is the small metal square for behind where the number plate is?
Appears to not be a magnet or anything. Just wondering!!

Interesting - i have a 2017 model (2018MY) and took the plates off when first purchased to put private plates on.

for sure i don't remember seeing this when changing the plates

It's just a fixing point. The image in the Previously discussed thread is of the Rear camera and RF antenna lower down the bumper. The fixing has no loom going to it.

Number 1 is the camera with the RF Antenna below and the blue arrow just shows the fixing point.

Scott, slightly off topic, but is that a metrovac sidekick in the bottom of the picture?
Had a look at these a while ago and still pretty keen, would you recommend?
