the previous owner had a K04 radar dectector built into the car, the lights are for the radar detector.

in other words your instrument cluster has been opened up in order to wire in the two blue LEDs.

Does that mean the radar is still in the vehicle or did he removed it already? Thanks.

That's sweet! i wonder why he sold such a sweet ride, that he cared that much to add that.

Could be another victim of economy.

Either that or he moved on to a 65

You are going to have to look for other signs like the front radar receiver mounted behind the grill area or in one of the lower intakes. Other signs would be the power controls somewhere under the dash area or in the center storage bin or ashtray.

Frequently these are removed before resale as it doesn't take long to pull them and they aren't cheap. The LEDs are left in place as they are cheap and leave holes.

most likely chances are that the radar has been removed.

Ya, you could try to hunt it down, if you knew what you were looking for! Do the lights blink?

It looks like a Passport system but you can us any LED"s with the hard wire kits!

I'll try to look for all this described area and post update.

The car seemed like it was repoed, because when I took delivery, there was the front plate, lots of receipts, one receipt was for the replacement of the tires, wipers oil and filter (good sign of maintenance), kids toys and candy and stufff all nicely put into a plastic bag and tucked in the trunk net compartment.
