My new Eclipse

Picking it up on Monday, got it for 8k out the door (which is probably too much still).

Only thing I was wondering in the pic of the trunk, it seems to be missing the bar that crosses at the top of the backseats. Not a huge deal, right? It has a 30 day/1500 mile warranty from this dealer, so I could get it replaced I suppose. Does it serve a function or is it just there to look pretty?

There's supposed to be a cover that conects to the bar there so no one can see in the trunk.
