Looks to be owner-added, not at all factory-original. Stereo amplifier or equalizer? CB radio? To where do those wires connect? You might get an idea as to what the plug may have been used for.

they got it running from the driver side to the passanger side so I guess its something for speakers. Ima rip it out anyways, also they got the hot running to the fuse panle so It for fact isnt factory. Anybody have a picture of the wiring for the radio?
