Seals out water/salt/dust, etc. I had a northern car in my shop many years ago. One plug was in the hole for using it for body alignment...it was factory fresh...the other one was missing...and the rust at the thole where it was NOT installed was amazing. I NO LONGER had a perfect hole for aligning the body to the frame. IT WAS GONE.
