extra wire connecters in console?

[BostonJon]

I have a 2005 SE V8 that I purchased recently. I was doing some deep cleaning over the weekend and pulled up the trim piece that goes around the shifter and houses the DAC button (and some other buttons on different trims). I have three buttons - two blanks and the DAC button.

I noticed that I have two extra connectors under there (see green arrows in pic). Does anyone know what these might go to?


EDIT: the small one seems to be for the power inverter
Wiring harness in shifter console?

EDIT 2: the larger one is for the smokers package and has multiple 12V wires included in the bundle
Another mystery wiring harness question...

Limited trim came with air shocks in the rear. There are two switches that control the ride height and air shocks. You should see those connectors in there.

Limited came with seat heaters. That wiring is NOT in the canter console area and ends at the driver's side kick panel near your left foot.

My 2004 Limited has seat heaters, but no air shocks in the rear.

To the OP, I bought the smoker’s package so I could add a plug for 2 USB ports or my aftermarket TPMS gauge. (I don’t smoke.)

just for S&Gs, I decided to purchase all the components of the OEM inverter.

-used inverter (behind the driver side rear quarter panel trim) ($60)
-dash switch ($20)
-2-prong outlet for console box ($15)
-trim cover for outlet ($5)
-relay for under hood fuse box ($5)

Total cost: $105

Yes, I am well aware that there are higher wattage options for much much cheaper. In my younger years, I was all about customization and would have done some sort of creative built-in inverter like I've seen many people post about on this forum. However, now that I'm getting to be an older dude, there's something about an OEM install that I like better.

I did the same thing. I pulled the parts from the local parts yard. I also did the automatic headlights and sensor for cheap too.

Repurpose connectors for outlet

Does anybody know if any of those connectors can be repurposed for a rocker switch outlet light a USB-C charger?
I bought one on Amazon and was ready to install it but figured it's a better idea to leave the 12V outlet in tact and functional, and maybe use one of the connectors to plug that rocker switch charger.

I spliced/tapped into the 12v outlet in mine

Nice.
Does the 12v still run like normal too?
