mystery electrical switch

'afternoon fellas
I'm rootin around my '01 figuring out how i'm going to wire and mount the antenna by-pass switch. Underneath the panel by the shifter that holds the active handling switch, and the pass. seatbelt off light,
i found this switch. It has a light, and what seems to be a grill with some foam behind it, and a small button switch. Can anyone tell me what this switch would be for??

thanks guys!

Its obviously a warning device of some sort. I don't recognize it therefore this will do a TTT for you. Early model Blinder Laser Jammer? My Blinder (M27) doesn't look like that at all but has a switch, light and small audio for that same location but they are each seperate.

I see a microphone element behind those slats. Might be a cell hands-free setup.

I just talked to a guy at the alarm store. The switch is part of my alarm system. The alarm can be programmed with different messages.
ie "GET THE HELL AWAY FROM THE CAR''

thanks for the responses guys!
