Unknown Part

I have a 1986 300ZX Turbo that I had moved 'professionally' due to having to relocate and the vehicle not being drivable at the time. When they dropped it off, they handed me a part that had apparently fallen off.. with no explanation of where it came from. I searched and searched and could not find where this had fallen off. I even question if it is from my vehicle, but based on the look.. it appears it very well could be.

Can anybody help identify this part??


Thanks in advance!

Is your car a digital dash ? (2) if it is does the dash work ? If your car is digital dash and it does not work, it could be the digital dash relay. Hope that helps. Cheers !

that could also be from the driver side of the engine bay, right behind the windshield washer fluid tank and beside the clutch master cylinder, theres a black plastic piece that you take off and that looks like it would come from there? the headlamp timer or something? I just had mine out and it looks just like it, I could be mistaken though

Yes. Which raises the question of how did this just "fall" off the car. The box is mounted to the antenna inside the left rear fender.

dang, I should have known that! I just took my power antenna off as my plastic belt that raises the antenna was broken, I looked at the pic and knew I seen it somewhere haha, is your car rusted through beside your muffler? and also there is a drain hole that the bottom of the antenna drains the water that leaks in the top, if you look by your muffler you will see it poking out, any chance it fits through there? I don't remember how big it is.
