    Default What is this plug?

    Can anyone tell me what this plug is I found behind the glovebox. I tried to follow where it went but it went to a large wiring loom. The car is a VS Calais if that helps.

    It almost looks a bit like a jack type thing that would go to a stacker or something.
    i really have no idea but it doesn't look like a regular 'general car stuff' plug... if you get what i mean?!!?

    Thats probably what it is. Mine has the mobile phone wiring harness ready behind the glovebox in the corner. It's defintaely not the antenna as mine is still working.

    to scooter79, that plug is your cars dual diversity aerial, meaning the factory unit supports two antenna plugs. one is connected to your anttenna in your front left quarter panel, and the other is run into the rear windscreen.

    Ahhh I see. So it would be for an aerial for say a mobile phone car kit?
