   just pulled my centre console out to replace some bulbs, and noticed a spare grey multiplug coming off the same loom as the hazards and demister - whats it for? I dont have any unused or broken switches.
   
   also noticed a smaller spare plug (about 20mm x 4mm) which is yellow and black, and has three female ports..
   
   any ideas? they some seem to fit shit.

   its probably for the likes of a vts alarm
   just saves them having 5 or 6 different types of loom for the range of cars

   ye would most likely be the same loom from a vts. they have an alarm led i think, and also a switch where you can turn off the passenger airbag

   Most likely to be for the alrm to turn the proximity sensors off
   
   either that or aircon, but that was more for abroad models or could even be for the passener airbag

   And very handy if they`ve got power to them because you might be able to use the them as power for upgrades,just a thought.
