    Default what is this? wierd thing in boot

    first off i will start with sorry, camera is dead atm so couldn't get a pic, anyways, i was cleaning out my boot today of my S1 VT Calais and noticed on left hand side there were some wires, so i followed it back behind the carpet on side of boot, and its some sort of loom that goes to something behind the piece of metal in front of the jack, when feeling this box type thing in dark, i could feel it had some sort of heat sinking on it sorry for bad explanation will get pics as soon as possible, just wondering if anyone knew what this was?

    According to the GMH service manual for the VT Calais, the amp you are looking at is the rear parcel shelf sub woofer amp. Only help I can give is wires Y/R + YW = LH SUB...G/W + G/R = RH SUB... B/BLU = earth. That sub is standard equipment on the VT Calais. Is the ten stacker cd changer still there?
