Was doing the convertible top mod (to eliminate the speed limit at which you can drop the top), and discovered a tiny little toggle switch near the hood latch. (See picture, below.) Looks like an aftermarket add-on, but I'm not sure. I have flipped the switch several times, and nothing seems to happen. Any ideas? I'll trace the wires this weekend and try to figure out.

That looks like it has something to do with the car's alarm.

Sounds like a fun project to trace those lines. Waiting for update report on mystery switch. My vote for alarm.
