Default What does this plug plug into?

Removed all the carpet to install insulation. There is a sub woofer amp and other stereo equipment that was professionally installed. This particular plug was wrapped w/ all the stereo wires, but is part of the original wiring of the car. Before the end of the plug, it branches off to the rear interior light and the electric hatch release, this is the passenger side. Anyway, apparently I unplugged it while removing carpet stereo equipment etc. I do not want to start taking things apart to find the female end of this plug. Your help is appreciated.

I'm not 100% sure but I think it might be the plug for the car's original CD changer.

Thats it. Where does it plug into? There is a CD changer in the right side cargo hull, and there is a amp in the center cargo hull. Thanks for the help.

The wire harness with the connector in-question was installed by the factory to support the 12 CD changer option. It provides power, speaker inputs, and controls for the stock radio up front to control it.

If you don't plan on installing a stock CD changer, simply leave it tucked away out-of-sight. If you ever sell the car, the next owner will appreciate it if he wants to install the stock changer.
