I had a box like this on a car alarm I had installed about 15 years ago. I had no idea what it actually did though. I didn't even notice it until a year after it was installed.

Nowadays dealers install aftermarket alarms and try to stick you with the cost of them after the sale.

I am sure this is a valet mode button of some sort, just ignore it

The only way to know is to follow the wires.Definately not factory,but as mentioned could be an alarm or kill switch,etc.

If you push it a certain number of times, your car turns into a GTR.

Are there 2 buttons or 1? It looks like the black button is a momentary switch. Can't tell if the white is a button or a led.

So, what happened to following the wires to the source?
