Mysterious box under the drivers seat.
« on: 23 March 2014, 18:04 »
Upon giving the car a good clean out today I noticed that there is a box under the drivers seat in a protective polystyrene case, I guess this is something to do with the Stereo, which is a RNS510.

Anyone care to shed any light on this for me?

Normally under the passenger seat but it could be the bluetooth module???

Either that or its just a junction box for other car functions

Ahh thanks, I thought it was something to do with either that or the Satnav.

Bluetooth would make sense.
