Box in left trunk panel
Hello All -
I recently purchased a 2010 W204 and I came across a silver box with a few wires in the left trunk panel where the first aid kit is. At first I was wondering if it is part of the Command system (like an amp) but it doesn't seem to be. Can anyone advise me what this is?


Thanks
Mike.

That's where the flux capacitor should be

I'm pretty sure that's where the amp for the Harman Kardon audio system is located. Is the case metallic with a bunch of cooling fins?

Thank you for the reply, but I only saw a few wires not 3 Geissler tubes in a Y shape.

Please post a photo. Maybe it's the remnant of a dilithium chamber that someone yanked
