Hatching above mirror

Anyone know what the hatching in the windshield above the mirror is for? I would have guessed an antenna but it already has one of those.

That is there to help block out the sun that would normally creep in between the visors

"Hatching" in this sense is used to describe the shading on the top of the windshield.

The satellite antenna on our cars is in the top of the roof, where the other antenna is.
