Found this while finishing my LCD install....

A black box under the rear passenger seat carpeting attached to an antenna under the rear drivers side carpeting. Only 2 wires...power (red arrow) and the antenna.(yellow arrow) There are a couple of numbers on it...but I cant find out what they are... 17900 221 0235E92 1.16 in no specific order. Anyone know what this could be? The antenna is round and it hooks into the box with a white RCA plug. Thanks in advance for any ideas!

Key FOB receiver?

I believe it's your central locking receiver for signals from your key fob.
