I was taking off my fender Linder because I need to replace it in the next few days, and saw a plastic bag wrapped around the top of this thing zip tied off and all. Anyone have any clue what it is/was?

Everything on the sticker is illegible so I can’t do any direct research to what it is. I am not the last owner and the guy before me abused this car.

I’m trying to post the pictures but it won’t upload… any advice?

Edit, got it.

Not OE for sure.

Does the part with the “accordion” boot on it go in/out? I’d GUESS an alarm module with a plunger switch, maybe for the hood.

Zip tied plastic bag? Was the molex-type connector plugged into anything? In any event, seems it was something at one time but now just an identifier of the PO, Mickey Mouse. 🙃

It's a ballast, either for HID or LED

im not really sure which is in and out I’ll attach a photo but honestly I have no way of telling, nothing was plugged in all the wire ends were in the bag and the brick part (ballast) as the other guy said was out not attached to anything. Yeah a lot of things on this car were really sketchy I wish I would have noticed before buying the car…

Red is input, other 2 are outputs.

Cheap aftermarket HID ballast. The two black plugs go into aftermarket HID bulb pigtails while the red is connected to power/ground. Your Z silver? Looks like there's overspray. Edit: Dark is correct.

Gonna speculate front bumper was re-sprayed / rattle-can'd while still on the car ... funny

Well, shoot, I'm losing it, never hit me but yer right! As a favor to me (gave them lots of referrals), my body shop (!!) installed my lights (after I shake n' baked 'em) and I never even saw everything out of the car. Handed 'em the parts(while my car was having door fixed) and said, "Go!" But yes, Dark is spot on.
