No, by now chances are the system doesn't work anyways.

The suspension will just remain at whatever setting its stuck at now.

I had never seen those either, until I got the car I'm parting out. It popped the hatch all the way up in a fairly rapid manner. I was awe-struck.
Back to the AAS, as stated it most likely isn't working anymore and just dead weight.

I put on KYB AGX so no more AAS. Only thing AAS related I removed though were the actuators on top of the shocks... since I removed the shocks. Is there anything else AAS related I can easily take out of my car? Like an actuator box that I can take out without ripping up the interior.

Edit: Haynes shows a little actuator box in the trunk. Can I just unplug that? Is that all I can really take out?
