What’s this.
Could someone let me know what this is and where is it supposed to live. I found it floating around in the rear wheel arch when looking to see if I can find anything that may have caused my pdc fault.
Cheers

It's the cover for the spare wheel winch, goes under the 3rd row seats, at the rear edge, in the middle.

Isn't that a cable leading in to it ?
Looks to me like a satnav aerial (ISTR that something like that lives there?)

V8 Brakes
EGRs blanked
Running boards
3 flash indicators and clock on dash

Yep it’s definitely got a cable going to it and with the length of the cable it must be in the wheel arch somewhere

do you have the phone socket / cradle on the underside of the arm rest?

Thanks for all the reply’s
Just had another look and it does not want to come apart so do not know what’s in it. The cable definitely still attached and looks to be an original connection to wiring loom not added after. The guy I brought it off gave me a pretty comprehensive document and paper work pack so couldn’t really see it having a tracker and not having some records of it.i do have the phone cradle under the armrest
