Default unknown connector under center console

I pulled up the center console last night and noticed a connector that wasnt hooked up to anything. anyone know what this goes to? i'm thinking for those center consoles that have the LED in the cupholders...but i didnt think that was on the 06.

Possibly for the switch to put the verts top down, coupes and verts use the same harness.

I saw that under my console, too, when installing my I-Pod hook-up. I thought it was also for the cupholder lights. My 05 doesn't have them and I'm not sure if that was an option in 05 either. But that was my guess.

Definitely not related to the convertible switch as that's in the overhead where the map lights are located.

I recall a previous thread about an unused connector inside the center console but can't recall what the responses were. Damn alzheimers!

Doc Brown told me it was for the Flux Capacitor... It will handle 1.21 Gigawatts (pronounced Jigga-Whats) of energy...
