I'd say it's a courtesy lamp holder but it certainly doesn't look like the drivers or passenger side ones I've seen on the earlier vettes (of course I've not seen any from 1774.... 63 is about as early as I go)

Its the bulb holder for the 73' (may be on other years were the lettering illuminates) wiper plate on the center gauge bezel. It should be light blue.

I used to restore cars but my daughters said I was getting on and not to do another. Well, I got tired of reading and had watched every western made so I am doing this without their knowledge. 1974 convertible, 49K , one owner, with L82 4spd 2 Hurst. with A/C. Replacing interior and gas tank, didn't have to do anything to engine, it cranked after sitting since 1988. New correct date stamped top and belts with correct labels. Every number will be correct when I finish. Oh! I forgot, car is 65 miles away and I go there 4 days a week to work on it. Daughters think I go visit my 88 year old friend.
