Infrared for a remote? http://img515.imageshack.us/img515/165/89629421iw2.jpg attack eagle 10-22-2007, 11:31 PM not oem... air freshener? anywires to it? perhaps a mic or cell speaker? moonsspoon 10-22-2007, 11:53 PM It does have a wire leading straight out the back of it. E34N 10-23-2007, 12:01 AM possibly a speaker of some sort CWB 10-23-2007, 12:07 AM is there supposed to be a picture? moonsspoon 10-23-2007, 01:07 AM Hm... I guess I will have to take it apart and trace the wire to see if I can figure anything out, since you guys are no help! =) There is supposed to be a picture, yes. Here is a direct link if you can't see it. http://img515.imageshack.us/img515/165/89629421iw2.jpg petespokerplane 10-23-2007, 01:39 AM I think it's either the microphone for an old mobile car phone, or a microwave or sonic sensor for an alarm, to detect movement inside the car when the alarm is armed. But, its probably the microphone. attack eagle 10-23-2007, 01:54 AM yeah I think it is a mic as well. doubtful it is a microwave sensor, even way back in 93 they didn't look like that... moroza 10-23-2007, 04:35 AM I think finding where the wires go will be much more informative than taking it apart. My OEM mic looks nothing like that - it's a little plastic stub, the size of a largish pencil eraser, dangling from the top of my A-pillar. Not this huge thing. My guess is an air freshener, secondguessed by an aftermarket alarm system. CWB 10-23-2007, 10:37 AM looks like some air freshener thingy But those are usually just attached to the cig lighter, not custom installed. |
