If you are referring to the red wire by itself that is punched through the grommet, that is another Previous Owners hack...

I didn't read the description but I don't see any filters in that auction at that price...

Would love to see pictures of why it was salvaged but otherwise not too scared. I have owned several Z's that should have been salvage title but weren't for whatever reason..

^^^ I agree

Responsibility is highly over rated!
