Title: mystery parts
Post by: kjhansen on December 18 2021, 11:07:06 PM: The guy who sold me my Regal sent along boxes of extra parts, including mufflers, exhaust manifolds, and lots of miscellaneous things. I don't even know what some of them are, as they are unlabeled. In fact I don't even know if they are car parts. Hmm. So here's a couple to start with. See pictures.

last thing may be part of factory alarm system. hard to tell without seeing the connectors

No, it's plastic.
