The square part in the center console that is still mounted to the hump in your last 2 pics is for the airbag stuff. That's why it has an arrow on the top pointing forward - it needs to point forward in order to properly work the airbag. Exactly what it's called I don't know - bnut it is airbag stuff and is factory.

The gadget in your top pic, not sure. Check wiring diags and see here:

Just about every diagram for a 1992 is there is you scroll down - will all be the same for your 1991.

Have you unplugged it to see what happens? Do all the windows, trunk release still work with it unplugged?

Any other markings anywhere? Can you open it up - maybe there's a brand name stamped inside that you can google?

Is there any funky wiring connected to the horn, or the horn relay? Was there an additional horn under the hood (like an alarm)?

I'd unplug it and see what happens. If nothing changes, save it (just in case someday), and forget about it.

Power Window Module - wow! Now we know!

Deadbird - I can see since it was mentioned about the widow wire splices that you'd think window module - but how in the heck did you manage to actually find THAT ONE? There must be 100 different such gadgets! Good find - I'm impressed!
