What's this thingy on the dash?

So I'm looking at buying a used, relatively low mileage 2003 X5 3.0i, pending an inspection from the local BMW dealer.
I'm curious as to what this device is on the left side of the dashboard though:


Self levelling suspension?

Thanks

^I'd like to know to, but will make sure my wife won't be any where close or it will go off like crazy then break

OP, that's aftermarket gadget that one of the PO put on.
