Peel back a little tape. If you see a
Yellow/Red and a Brown, then it’s
a prewired connector for a security
system horn that your car wasn’t
shipped out with.
The black dummy plug with the metal
clip is there to waterproof and keep the
unused connector from flopping around.

Sorry about the multiple photos. I have never uploaded photos here and didn’t realize I had uploaded so many. I will delete some when I figure out how.

Everything about it being a non installed security component makes sense. I found the plug hanging but there is no symptoms or non working components. The black dummy plug seems to have been welded to the firewall and broken off.

Too many pictures is never a bad thing - especially when they are clear and in focus.

Thats at least 3000 words right there.

Dont worry about removing them, they are fine

OP already fixed the duplicate pics issue. But to be clear I agree with abscate and was only kidding - thanks Cillyman for a clear post.
