Small unknown knob

Hi I have a 03 CL600 I just purchased with was told the Renntech tuning. I am still getting to know this car but I found a small potentiometer knob on the left side of the console sticking through the carpet about where your knee would be. Not sure what it’s purpose is. Doesn’t seem to change anything while it’s running like any interior things. Anyone know what it could be?

Could it be for an aftermarket subwoofer - the gain control.

I don’t think so. I have turned it with the radio up and it doesn’t seem to make a difference. Thought maybe someone else on here would have one and know what it was for.
