Default Any ideas on this in the fuse box??

Hello all,
recently purchased a used 370z from a dealer who imported it from the states.
I guess some mods were done to this as I am finding random things in/on the car! haha

I know this is going to be tough, but was hoping someone has the same setup. Does anyone have an addition to their fuse box that looks similar to the first picture? It goes into a hole under the foam stuff, but I haven't ripped anything apart to find the source yet. Will do that later on!
I've noticed the car has a backup camera and can play DVDs on the navigation system.
The second picture I posted in another thread and we believe it's a tracking unit for GPS (the car has something called globali).. not sure if this helps or not in solving the fuse box thing.

Thanks guys!!

The picture of the fuse box is just an add-a-fuse thing. It is giving 12V to something. Most likely the GPS module.

It is a tracking antenna? I googled it and found this on a Audi Forum

Is Globali.com registration mandatory? - AudiWorld Forums

Hmmm, interesting read Triples... Yah OP, I tend to agree with what CBRich posted, but would recommend chasing the wire down for yourself to see where it goes.

12v tap, my guess would be for a radar detector. 2nd pic is a GPS antenna.
