That connector went to original taillight. It contains ground, brake and tail light signals (can be used for license-plate light).



I suppose when they installed integrated taillight/brake/turn-signals it came with bullet connectors and didn't plug in directly. So they vampire-tapped into wires. Damn hacks!

Mating 3-way male-connector might be one of these (will have to find dimensions from somewhere to compare). Although it looks like older unsealed Molex connector. But most likely Hitachi-style Sumitomo:

Turn-signal lights can use these connectors to plug into factory harness:

EDIT: found Sumitomo MTW connector dimensions here.
