What does this switch do?

what ever it is, this switch controls it.
if you have an iPod cable, most chances it will switch the AUX input, between the OEM CD changer and the iPod.

I fiddled it with it when the audio system was on, no dice. I'll try seeing where it goes. This could be fun.

second, as others have said it is after market so you'll want to see what the wire(s) attached to it run to and try to track it down that way. i think a few people have put a laser shifter / radar shifter kill switch there (but from the other pics doesn't look to be the case). look for ipod / iphone integration stuff and see if you have the cd changer in the front trunk (frunk).

what part of maryland is home? did you get it from the carmax in rockville? that's where my boxster spent some time as well (though not where i puchased it from).

Thanks! I'll be sure to do that. As for the front plate, i'd rather leave it on, just because I don't wanna get fined repeatedly again by the police. Hopefully Maryland sanes up a little about these things... It was the Carmax in White Marsh. You wouldn't be able to tell though, because I had to stop them from putting on their plate covers and that weird "Carmax" sticker. The car calls Bel Air home, but I'm at school at UMBC a lot of the time (Without the car).

Thanks for all of your help guys! I was just wondering if that switch had ever been seen coming from the factory. Also, I met the president of the local PCA at a Cars & coffee today, and I'm looking forward to joining soon!
