Just curious as to what this is that I've pulled out of my car?

Only connection into loom was a permanent live.

It was all behind / above the glove box apart from what I think is a microphone / buzzer that was under the centre console.

It's an 89 320 cab.

Yep, that's the leftovers of a carphone kit.
