Found a secret door!!! (Shhhhh....)
While working under the dash on the passenger side, pulling a new wire for an auxiliary power outlet (aka lighter socket) -- but that's another story -- I discovered a Secret Door in the passenger's kick panel. For all the times I've lain on the floor, wiring speakers and such, I never noticed this thing before.
As the picture shows, behind 'Door Number One' is a black box, some kind of electronic thing, I suppose, and a round thing that says "EGR" on it. Well, we all know what EGR means but what are these two things? Are they unique to the 1985 model W123 diesels?
