Default Please help with strange wires in trunk

Hello,

2 months ago I bought 530d 2009' E60 with very good set of options. I had two problems with this car - 1) Night Vision was showing just white screen and 2) I had strange wires in trunk.
Yesterday I polished NiVi lens and now it's working fine, so I left with only one problem - strange wires in trunk. Wires look like stock, but electric block is missing. Maybe someone knows what block should be there and where this wires are going? I don't want to disassemble interior yet.

I asked local Latvian BMW dealership - they said that car might be with "special equipment", like embassy car.

Little details: there is +/ground/ign wires, some logic/data wires and four cables with 8-pin connectors. Two of 8-pin cables are going on left side of the car, other 2 cables are going on right side of the car.

Spoiler

That looks like the s-video cable for the entertainment system.
