Default What are these please?

Can anyone shed any light on what these are and for?

First is next to handbrake under centre console




Second one is in the rear parcel shelf and connected to the rear demist, is it just to stop interference with the integrated aerial?

Googled the first and it's a crash sensor, so for airbags, seatbelt tensioners?

Second deosn't Google, but being Clarion, I'd guess IC related, so your guess is probably right.

Thought the first would be crash sensor but since the wiring isn't yellow figured it more likely to be a fuel cut off maybe?

Still trying to figure out what this is for. Part of my research indicates that it is used in ESP on other cars, maybe! Every page I find is in a foreign language. My car had a steering angle sensor on the airbag control ring but there was no corresponding wiring on the car. Could this be part of an ESP system about to be introduced after or during MY05 STi?

I want to relocate/remove if possible - no air bags in car now so if anything to do with that then it's not required!!

The bosch bit may well be a decelleration sensor for airbag triggering.
