Default Anyone know what these are?
See the attached .jpg - I happened to notice these circular things under the front driver's side corner today and I really have no idea what they are. They aren't on the passenger side. Any ideas?

They do have wiring running to them, and they are rigidly fastened in that position. That's about all I know right now.

Looks similar to Heisenberg Compensators. Possibly a Takion Field generator. I'm a doctor Jim, not a magician!

the horns are /normally/ behind the grill, and in front of the radiator on most of the cars I've been into.

My 84 760 and the 90 740 both have them where the OP's are. Haven't really dug into a 9.

oh geez, yer right, they are under the left headlight on my 92 740 too. I guess it was the 240 (and a benz 300e and my old volkswagon rabbit&jettas) that had them in front of the radiator, hah!
