What's under the 2 plastic covers on top of front bumper ? by imo

On the 2009 RX350, there are 2 spring-loaded plastic covers on top of the front bumpers.
I pulled up one of the cover and saw something under it that looked like an electrical part.
Didn't know what it was.
Does anyone know ?

I believe I found the answer to my own question.
 
I guess under those 2 plastic covers are nozzles for the headlight washers.
Supposedly, these nozzles spring up from the bumpers and spray liquid toward the headlights.

I have owned my 2009 for 16 months and didn't know, but I do now. Take a look at this link. No doubt left.

Another "what is this thing?" question by imo

This question is for the 2009 RX 350
 
Looking under the hood, I saw a white plastic tank under the car battery ( driver side of the car).
The window washing fluid tank starts out on the passenger side but I don't know where it ends.
 
This mysterious tank didn't seem to have any liquid in it, but it was hard to tell.
I looked to see if any hoses were connected to the tank but the view was
blocked by other things.
 
Does anyone know what I am talking about ?

I don't own an RX so this may be a wild stab, (and assuming the white tank you saw is not actually the bottom part of the battery), could it be the window washer fluid for the rear window?

According to someone in a different forum, the tank is "intake resonator".
It's supposed to reduce the noise of air going into the engine.
