328 GTS: Something under my passenger seat? Lojack?

The car wasn't seized from a drug dealer in Escondido was it?

 

Patrick,

Here are my thoughts,

I don't think it's a Lojack, the Lojack unit is a lot smaller than that and not that easily found in a vehicle. I am assuming there is no writing or label on the box?? Even if you find a company logo would help identify it or a model number of some sort.

My best guess would be that it is posibley the remaining equipment from a posible navigation system that use to be in the car??? Your guess could be close too, posible an old amp for a cell phone too ????

I think you meant a DB-9 connector not RG-9...

Get some pictures on here of the unit if you can, that may help....

W/a coax connected, My guess is that if it isn't a cell phone setup, it's the main electronics for a CB rig that had the controls in the microphone. They were pretty popular in the late '80s.

Couple of things to try:

0) Go to the luggage compartment & see if the antenna is plugged into a little box that splits the CB signal off from the AM & FM signals. The box usually has a couple of small adjustment screws on the side to match the antenna to match the CB & radio cables.
1) Unscrew it from the floor & see if the mfg's lable is on the bottom side.
2) Open it up & see if there's a mfg's lable inside (Had to do this to figure out a black box under my Rx7's seat - turned out to be an UnGo security system. Keys fob, doc's, etc. long lost of course.)

If all else fails, take a pix of the insides of the box & post them, maybe someone will recognise them.

 

It's the titanium warp drive module conductor-compacitator flex-ring seal. Part # 002849576382827 I think. LOL

 

Your so close TIFOSI69.....
its whats left over from the removal of the FluxCapacitor.
Ive seen one in a 80's Delorean.

but seems more like a cell phone amp in this case.

 

Capacitor...OH, I knew I mispelled it.
