Sensor(?) in my speaker grill?

When I was changing the passenger side front speaker something, connected to a wire running under the dash was attached to the speaker grill. It came loose & fell into the dash. Can anyone tell me exactly what this thing is? Sort of looked like a type of sensor to me.
This car is a 1977 300D.
Thanks in advance...us441south.

I second that. Do you have a little square grill on the top of the dash between the center vents? If so it's defently the temp sensor for the automatic climate control
