    So fixing my HUD today I ran into a few things I didn't notice when buying the car.

    this little box has a blinking green light



    This little dongle will slide out and keep the car from starting.

    Some buy here/pay here credit car dealers put boxes on cars so they can disable if you do not pay.
    this could be leftover from a prev deal.
