I am ripping out and restoring my 88 iroc

In the drivers side rear trunk well. Under the locked compartment area, there is a small power box mounted to the frame. It has a what looks like a coax connector and maybe power going to it.

What is this? Is this for a power antenna or stereo? Can I just rip it out"?

 

sounds like some sort of rf amp for cb. i cant think of any oem reason because the radio antenna's are in the front fender

 

I will take a picture, but it is a GM OEM part it has a label on it and is hooked up to the orange power lead from the tail lights. and has a brown shield wire with a twist on connector

 

google the part number should give you a description

 

NSA monitoring?

 

lol, thats what i was going to say. but you dont know how people are going to take a joke these days. you can rip it off now though they are shut down i believe.

 

Just what they want you to think and let your guard down! On topic though, is there an impact fuel cut of switch on 3rd gens?

 

fuel cut off wouldnt have coax gong to it

 

I figured not but the location made me think of the cut off and I haven't noticed one so just wondered if there is one somewhere.
