What is this?

I've had my GX for about 10 days now. I noticed this odd "hole" to the left of the shifter.
What is it? Photos attached.

Is yours missing the plastic cap for the AT shift lock release?

It appears that you have lost a blank plug. To what, I have no clue. I assumed it was a manual override for the shifter like I had on my MDX (insert an object and you can shift with no key). I tried this on the GX with no results.

Curiously got me so I pulled the console up. I didn't look up the parts diagram, so not sure what it is for.

Here's the answer to your question...
Looks like your GX460 is missing the cover to the shift lock. You can check with your dealer to get a replacement. They shouldn't charge you for it since you just recently purchased the SUV.

Shift lock cover

Nice job TECMAN and GX460PREM...great pics....you guys do great work.
You nailed it.
I texted the shot to my dealer and she's putting a cap in the mail to me. Done.
