Mystery Wire

I found a wire on coming out of the driver's side firewall underneath the master cylinder. It has a green plug on the end that has 3 prongs inside of it. It plugged into something at one time. The length of wire will reach the back of the engine.

Anyone with an idea as to what this wire is for?

(I cannot add an attachment picture otherwise I would)

If you upload the picture to photobucket, you can throw the IMG link on here.

At first I was thinking maybe it was one of the pass through wires, but since it has a plug on it, I'm unsure.

The PO had a huge sound system in the truck. I'm wondering if it went to a relay for that system straight to the battery? If others do not have ths wire on same model trucks then it is probably an add on.
