Thelongads Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 don't laugh but this adaptor was on the car when I bought it but never bothered to find out what its for - can anyone help? Pics not great, if comes out from the passenger side windscreen [/img] cheers Ads Quote
Trev-the-Rev Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Can't really tell from that picture. I don't think it's original equipment though. Well at least mine doesn't have one. Quote
MITZ@CougarStore Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Ads, is your car fitted with a standard headunit, if its aftermarket it could be a jack for an ipod... Quote
scottsoulby Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 looks like a power cable for something, maybe an install for a sat nav or road angel, could of been hard wired and left in Quote
T8 JPE Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 sometimes aftermarket handsfree kits use a special tax disc holder as an aerial. this could be the lead for it. Quote
GIXXERUK Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 i would put a multi tester on it before plugging anything into it Quote
Craig782 Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 I agree, definetly appears to be a power jack for something? What would you want right over the other side of the car though i dont know Unless T8 is onto something with the tax disc ariel, i dunno! Quote
nick w Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 sat nav or speed trap detector maybe? can you pull it? Quote
Zedrush Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 99% sure its a lead for speed trap detector or sat nav, had one similar for my angel and had it set up very similar of the cig lighter at the back to bypass having messy leads wired to it Quote
Thelongads Posted January 3, 2009 Author Posted January 3, 2009 cool thanks guys - makes sense that its sat nav / trap detector related. Quote
H5 Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 Could be the lead for a power aerial for a GPS / car kit. Quote
neodc Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 i looks like the same connector i had for a cig lighter style vibrator :S ( for my ex ), dunno if someone would go to the effort of wireing it behind dash tho .. Quote
BulletMagnet Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 i looks like the same connector i had for a cig lighter style vibrator :S ( for my ex ), dunno if someone would go to the effort of wireing it behind dash tho .. Now think about that for a sec.....think about the vibrator in that location in the car (near tax disc) and then think of the position of the female trying to use it......it looks kinda funny in my head (but interesting nonetheless, lol) Quote
