Default Help identify mystery module

Friend's '79 have this module hidden in the center console, from the connector it look rather legit, but not idea what it could be. The vette have probably been owned by a couple of Bubbas in the past, hard to tell what's original and what isn't.

I have one very similar to that under my center console also.When I looked it up in my AIM, it shows it is the anti-theft relay #356284.. There is also a flasher under there
Does your anti-theft system work ?

I think this may be the correct answer, the pulse wiper control module and relay.

Thanks for both suggestions, and I think we have a match, this is indeed an intermittent wipe module, Thanks, good job and case closed

The option being for 80-82 I think he will now understand why the electric harness schematic for a 79 he bought didn't help much.

Pulse Wiper option began in 1978. But the parts weren't ready for Corvette until late in the 1978 model year (March or April??).
