Default Under Dash Box

Anyone recognize what's mounted under the dash to the left of the climate control buttons?

It is the controller module for the Escort 9500ci remote radar detector I don't see the display module but it is probably in the accessory pop up box.

You're awesome.

Looking at a car that has it installed, but I kind of doubt the detector would be included. Are the controllers hardware mounted to the dash (ie holes) or spliced into wiring anywhere?

Can we assume you're not the original owner?

Haha see above. Looking at possibly picking it up and upgrading from the '07.

Wow, just finally got a chance to look into it myself. Intense.
