Re: Mysterious yellow box
My guesses:
1. aftermarket cruise control
2. aftermarket alarm/motion detector
WTH, half my dubs have had those damned things wired
in when I got them.
Maybe it's a Speed Racer Control Unit? For Oil Slick,
Retractable Saw Blades, or Those Feet That Make The
Car Jump Over Shit? Any sign of that stuff being
added? Anybody have a clue of what I'm talking about?
Remeber, I know how old you are.
What's the prize to the lucky winner?
