I've never seen anything in those holes on any of the preludes I've looked at. they are empty on my car too. maybe they are for something on a jdm or European model.

It's not on the auto trans either, just looked. The threads in the holes are oxidized so it looks as if nothing has ever been installed. Who knows.

That is one effed up prelude, you should take that thing out back, soak it in 10 gallons of disel fuel and let it burn, put it out of its own misery.

indeed it is. Mines RHD and my throttle cable was bolted to these. I removed them and tucked the throttle cable under the injector harness. Looks so much cleaner.
