Hiddin Folding Carpet I Found Today While Vacuuming

Guys - while I was vacuuming on the front right passenger side carpet floor, I saw that you can bend the carpet from top and you see some padding behind it with some wires...

What is that???

I noticed that as well, first i thought of this being a good hidding place but then I noticed that it doesn't cover properly and there are lots of wires and you can see the firewall and the body metal.

You noobz

It's a Kick plate under that and when you remove it there is a Jump point from the car's battery to the front of the car. DO NOT ATTEMP TO FUNK WITH IT!

Thanks, I didn't see a kick plate but only took a quick look. I guess this is where the battery is hidden or is it somewhere else.

Is this what you guys are talking about? I put UMI main unit (black box in the last picture) in there, plenty of space. I don't know what is the box on the second picture. Anyone?

This is RHD model, so of course the front passenger is on the left side.

Love those canucks that don't read their manual to help locate their battery.
