Default What goes here?

1964 vette dash. Bottom side of the dash, drivers side. On the far left on the bottom is the headlight bucket switch.....about an inch to the right there is a slot about 3/4 inch wide. Looks just like the slot that the headlight bucket switch goes into. Looks factory to me. Anything go there? I've had this thing since 1997 and never noticed it because I had an aftermarket temp gauge there. Just removed it because I got the original working.

I believe that is where the headlight rollover switch goes in an AC car.
I might be wrong.

Thanks Rich, I thought it might have something to do with A/C.

The cut out is on all the dash panels. If AC installed it gets used. At least on my 64 w/o AC (already sold but not picked up yet) dash that's what I see.
