I bought a used BRZ Hyperblue yesterday from a dealer, and I found this inside! It's in the left of the driver side footwell. What is it?? It appears to have a power button, something resembling a volume knob, and an Ethernet cable plugged into it that runs somewhere into the car.

Remote control for a sub? IIRC, that's a Rockford Fosgate logo.

Leonardo · 01-20-2018, 03:09 AM

That is a subwoofer volume control. And som duct tape.

Headlight rocket launcher control.

Brink · 01-20-2018, 03:33 PM

Now I'm wondering if the sub is still installed in the car, or if the previous owner ripped the sub out and forgot to take out the control.

That’s for the turbo boost.

Jk lol it’s a gain knob for a sub, Rockford Fosgate logo. It would have ran directly to the amp so I would say you could safely remove it or even just unplug the Ethernet cable if it won’t pull out.

Thanks buddy.

Thanks everyone. Maybe I'll just leave it in there and get a sub for my Ethernet cable. 😂😂😈
