We have a 2002, built in April 2002 and we have what you are calling the black grated area around the rearview mirror. I believe there were complaints from 2001 owners that the tinted area was too wide and people didnt like looking through the tinted area all of the time, particularly tall drivers. The grated area is just around the mirror but the tinted area was the same width all the way across the windshield.
