I bought this car in December of '07. Always noticed the wires hanging down by my feet but never bothered messing with it till now. There was a switch in the panel, a On and Off switch (you can see by the hole) :confused:. Can anyone make out what the previous owner could have had down there?

could have been anything really if its not connected to something then remove it. I can honestly think of 1001 uses for a switch. Ghetto amp turn on, ne0nz, alarm, ejector seat, hacking a speedo?
 
LOL ghetto amp turn on.:thumb: When I bought mine like 2 weeks later I pushed the button on the remote that I found in the glove box and the car started. I have since disabled the remote start.
 
When I bought my car it had a small switch in the kick panel as well. Not attached to anything. I've since come across several other cars in the junk yard that have a switch, again, none of which are attached to anything.. I've always wondered what they were.. :confused: They've all been normally open switches too, so they were used to start something, or activate a relay perhaps.
