Whilst fitting my head unit and running my mic lead under the d/s dash I came across these plugs and Im a bit concerned as to what they are?
Also is this the diagnostic port? Not sure if its been messed with or the wires have come loose?

Agree the last one is OBD 2 and by the looks of it have been hacked to bits? Did you check the history on the car ?
The white one in picture one looks like its part of the clock spring but I cant quite make it out can you do another image zoomed out

As has been said the black one looks like the OBD data link connector.
The grey one is the check connector and has two earth connectors taped to the loom just above it.
The white 8 pin connector (7 pins used) is a bit of a mystery as there are (AFAIK) no OEM white 8pin "all in a row" connectors.
Given the cable ties shown behind it, it could be for something "After Market" that has been removed.

It's an additional port linked to the data link connector and other items.
Also used for diagnostics with the Subaru Select Monitor (SSM) system (airbag /Cruise control diagnostics etc.)
Usually mounted on a bracket

Just to update this thread the obd2 port that is pictured above does not fit into the actual trim under the dash so this must be the wrong obd2 but im still baffed as to why this would have been put in?
Im trying to explain this to an auto sparky so he can remove this one and replace with the correct one.
