Just curious. It's in the trunk on the drivers side.

I could have swore the cd changer harness was different, but I know that most if not all the cars have the plug for the factory car phone (if equipped obviously the unit would be there) Im not 100%

You plug your computer in and it you can print. You load the paper through the headlights and it will come out of the a/c vent.

i think it has to do with the phone system in the car, like the phone ports in the center armrest, but i def could be wrong...

phone connector - you can tap into it and tap into the arm rest plug and have some updated car phone fun

What's a car phone? hahaha I haven't seen one in sooooo long. They were big and now they are so obsolete with cell phones and bluetooth sync up with the car. What's this updated car phone you speak of?
