Default Center Console Knockouts - Switches?

There are four rectangular knockouts on my center console right above the parking brake handle. Each knockout is about 1" by 2". What are they for? My guess is that factory option switches can go there. If true, switches for what?

In older overseas Hondas, the switches for the parallel parking guide pole accessory and the power radio antenna went there.

Here's a shot of some of these switches in a 4th-gen Accord (taken from CB7Tuner.com):

I installed the aftermarket switches for my SPAL power windows in those spots. They were a perfect fit with no modding of the switch or the hole.
