    green switch on the kickpanel...... sounds to me like something aftermarket, and therefore it'd be impossible for one of us to tell you what it's for

    Sounds like someone has added it in for some reason at some point. Could have been a killswitch, fully sik neon switch, just about anything. The only real way to find out is to trace the wires and see what (if anything) they lead to. I assume you tried flicking it to see...

    It's got to be an after market switch. Maybe a kill switch.
    Edit: Too late
