Wierd kick panels

Im not sure what this is. I removed my kick panels and Ive always wondered what the wires do. Can anybody help me identify what they are? Thanks

It looks like a Bose stereo speaker enclosure. These were mounted in the kick panels.

Really! I was skeptical because there are 4 wires that hang out of this sucker. I tried to open it up but I couldnt because the fabrique is glued on pretty good. I'll get a better picture as soon as I get my IROC out of the shop.

Yes, that's Bose stuff. The bose stuff uses 4 wires because there's an amp in there, not just a speaker.

Re: Wierd kick panels

Ok. Thanks Twin_Turbo. I was skepticle because I was wondering why there was a small hole on the underdash panel that covers the ECM, heater core. I then found out that the little hole was for a light bulb. So my issue was that these kick panels are so bulky, that the passenger side light bulb (underdash panel), is hidden by the bulkyness of the kick panel. OOhh well. I'll post pictures after I get my IROC out of the shop. Getting a Reman tranny put in.
