Look into the second from the right verticle grill opening and on the radiator you'll see a metal switch box with a little adj. knob. It has wires coming out of it running into the passenger side fog light area. Any idea what this is for? I was gonna turn it to see what it did but I'm skeeered...lol.

any ideas?

Actually there is two such devices, one above the other..They are refrigerant line connectors to the A/C condensor. They also serve as isolation valves to aid in removing of the condensor without losing the charge...(No wires, just pipes)..Don't turn that little torx head knob!

good thing I didn't turn it. The pipes are inside a wire loom I just assumed there were wires in there. Thanks for the info, seems kinda silly that they would put it out there unprotected like that, any idiot could really screw with it quite easily if they wanted.
