Default What these connectors are these near battery?

Looks like I have an aftermarket battery (right?). But, does anyone know what these connectors are for? They were just sitting there.

The one on the right is for a power socket option in the trunk: http://jagrepair.com/images/AutoRepa...owerSocket.pdf

The others where used during vehicle transport across the ocean and have no function once the car is delivered.

I have the same on my car. I believe one of them at least is for a dealer fit cigar lighter option.

There is a Green-Black wire that runs from the radio headunit to the power antenna.

Actually those can be very useful in the boot. I use the switched live from one and the earth. I found them very handy.

Power socket in the trunk? So that when you stuff someone in there, they can charge their phone to call for help? OK, it makes sense now.

Also good for a power supply for the reciprocating saw, taller people sometimes need their lower limbs trimmed to fit inside the trunk.
