It's garbage. I'm not sure what role it was actually supposed to play, but it's just a weight that they put on convertibles.

I believe it is supposed to act as somewhat of a counterweight, to try and eliminate some of the "body flex" you might experience with it being a convertible.

It is an "anti-vibration" weight. It does absolutely nothing. Remove it. You will notice no difference.
