Default "Guide" Module, What does it control and can I get rid of it?

Like the title says I am trying to figure out what this guide module is on my car and if I can delete it. It mounts off the fuse box on the driver side and it would make running my intercooler piping a lot easier if I didnt have to leave it in there.

Default Guide box

I believe that's the headlight control module for your popup headlights.

Yup, that's a Firebird headlight door module.

There's no reason you can't cut, splice and extend the wires and mount it somewhere else.

Just use more than one color of wire
