What is this?

I have two of these black boxes. One under the dash and one in the console glovebox. I also have two switches installed under the dash that may be related. I have no clue on what these do.

Re: What is this?

Yeah, looks like alarm stuff or possibly almost anything. Only way to find out is follow the wires attached to the switches to see what they are connected to

Turns out it's an old Chapman Alarm. Anyone have any information on it?
