    New Marauder

    Hey guys I recently got ahold of a 2004 Marauder with 74k! During my ‘reconditioning’ of the car. I came across a few weird items I’m wondering if you guys have ever seen before.
    there’s an antenna on the windshield and back glass.
    a couple of kill switches and these lights over the cluster that seeeem to blink wherever radars are. I haven’t gone and ripped the interior out cause it doesn’t really seem to affect anything but I’m curious if anyones come across this. Pics attached.

    thanks!

    ALL of this...EVERYTHING in your pics is aftermarket. I assume 20-year-old radar detection.

    The LED's are very likely a K40 radar detector. You'll probably notice one or two modules (antennas) under the bumper or behind the grille, and maybe the rear, too. That was EXPENSIVE when it was installed. The momentary switch in the kick panel is likely tied to the remote start system to prevent starter engagement when the vehicle is being serviced. Over 20 years in automotive electronics experience speaking but if my hands were on it - it would be more simple to figure out.

    Thanks for the reply guys, I think I might dig into it a little further. On to find DIYs for removing the lower instrument panels!
