Default Module behind right headlight????

I am replacing the headlights on my 2000 coupe with fixed headlights. There is a module mounted on the right headlight bracket with some pretty good sized wire looms coming out out of it. The module is about 4"x4" and about an 1" thick.

Is this the front impact module for the airbags?

This is on my race car and will be removing the airbags.

That would be the headlight control module.

The airbag module is under the A/C controller unit

Thanks for the help.

I unplugged the module and the headlight (only had the right one installed) seemed to be working ok. I guess the module is for operating the headlight motors?

Yes, it controls the opening and closing of the headlamps via command from the headlamp switch.
