At first i was going to ask if you looked on the correct side of the car. Seeing the photo is different for you guys. Now i want to know what it's for LOL, as the guys above said would be a silly spot for Bus' cards.

Just to take this way off topic... I drove a test monaro (or pontiac lol) we were sending off to the US once, and slammed my left hand into the drivers door so many times trying to change gears... Its good having the right hand on the wheel though... anyways the card slot...

Shine a flash light inside the slot! Are there any electrical looking prongs?

Do you guys have Electronic Toll Cards (ETC) in Australia? Maybe it's an ETC slot?

Nah we don't, we have tags (little devices) that stick to the winshield so i doubt it's anything like this.. I know in Japan they do have the cards (my friends r34 gtr talks in Japanese when we pass toll points on the eastlink). Maybe they just have it there on ours but it's not functional.... could be just a slot with the electrics missing...

I believe they actually are just Business card holders. It goes pretty much straight through with some backing. There is a spring loaded piece on top inside to what I presume is to hold down the cards or what ever you put in there.

That's not really that interesting - I reckon its just a Nissan way of removing the ETC card slot and making something look half-useful, ie the business card holder.
