Hi, 

I just bought a wonderful 2009 Boxster S. I've looked through the manuals, but can't find any mention, description, or illustration of the attached. The light in the center glows blue on and off. 

Has anyone seen this before? Any ideas what it might be? and/or how to use it? Its at the left side of the dash, right next to the Light Switch. I'm convinced that it has something to do with the phone, blue-tooth connection. By the way, the car has PCMicon 3, with Navigation and bluetooth, and universal audio connections, with the Bose premium audio...

Thanks in advance for any guidance...

Wow, that's unusual. I even did a google image search and the only hit was your post here! I am guessing it is a Chinese bluetooth module of some kind, for playing music or calls from your phone. Does anything happen when you press, or press and hold any of the buttons?
