The button is aftermarket that's for sure. I assume it's not a small USB memory stick either. Have you tried pushing it and did anything happen?

On a side note look like it could do with a clean

The car has only had one service done by car shop, carpet cut, scratches on the dash and glovebox, and the flip key broken and heated seat problem, think I got it all.

Sounds like trouble before you even get started. A lot of J's out there, don't settle for something that's good but not what you expect.
