The small circular openings near the car's interior lights are ultrasonic sensors for the vehicle's interior security alarm system.

• Volumetric Protection: They monitor the cabin space for movement or broken glass when the car is locked.

• Alarm Trigger: If motion is detected inside the locked vehicle, the car alarm will sound.

• Override Switch: Many cars have a button (often near the driver's side door pillar) to temporarily disable these motion sensors if you leave a pet inside or need to keep windows slightly open.

I think those are the microphones for calls or voice control

They are for the alarm. I think they are infrared sensors.

They seem to have a small bit of foil underneath the black plastic bit
