I was called out once in a similar case to Landcaster, Pa.  Loud explosion, 
penetrated window and dashboard etc.  Had to get very contorted to search the 
dash with all my inspection mirrors and forcepts.  Found a fragment in the 
bottom of the plemum which was a gray matrix that soooo looked like a meteorite 
in situ.  Suppressed my urge to yell YAHOO and worked away calmly  Finally 
extracted the fragment with extra long forcepts and it was the paper/sawdust 
liner of an what looked like a cherry bomb/M80 fire cracker. 

The safety film of this car was also stretched outward and also located at the 
lower window edge and centered.  Me thinks there are so many similarities this 
was not an out of the sky scenario.
