So I was cleaning out the fiero that i bought 2 days ago and removed the plate for the aldl plug to clean it and i found this port plugged into three ports on the aldl connector.

Has anyone seen this or know what this is?

Thanks in advance

It's an adapter that uses a 3.5mm (1/8") stereo jack to connect to the laptop. Basically, it just allows you to plug a cable into the ALDL port without pulling the two screws to get off the black plastic cover.

The funny thing is it was still tucked behind the cover. I didnt know anything about it till i took the cover off.

Thanks

Huh...kind of defeats the purpose in that case. That's generally what most here do with their ALDL ports, which is what I based that guess on. I definitely could be mistaken.

Yup. Got on in my GT. BUT I drilled a small hole and mounted it. Definitely makes it easier to connect an ALDL cable and laptop.
