little red button
 
I've got a 986 '02 boxster s and have notice a tiny red button that seems to have appeared from the gap where the joing between the centre console and stereo part meets on the drive side. Its got 2 small wires connected to it which seem relativley loose. I havent pressed the button yet but dont have a clue what its for. Would anyone have any ideas?

Cheers

NOS!!

There is no telling, it is not anything OEM I have ever seen.
It could be a sub woofer switch. How about extra lights on the car, on the outside or the foot well hack?

I would follow the wires and see where they run or call the previous owner if you can track him/her down.

Ah the mysteries of owning a second hand car... I had a strange wire running from under the driver's seat to the rear wheel. Never figured out what that was for, but it wasn't connected to anything, so I pulled it out. I found my Lojack system too in its secret hiding place. :D

As for this mysterious button, just push it and see what it does. I'm betting that it's for an OBD hack.

Don't a lot of people have hidden ignition cutoffs?
