While I was dis-assembling the dash I ran into this. I think this might be part of an underdash AC, which the PO had installed. It never worked and I removed it years ago. It looks like the brown wire is going through the firewall and the red and red/white wire grounds to the firewall. Does this look like an OEM part? Thanks.
What is this?

Could be. I guess it might also be part of the after market head unit that I ripped out. I just want to know if I can remove it. Anyone else?

Re: What is this?
Where does the brown wire go after it goes through the firewall?
