Pics would be helpful.

Depending on trim level (I'm guessing from your avatar its a 5th gen) it could be were the sunroof button is on the EX/EX-V6. If you don't have an EX this could be what you are referring to.

it is an Alarm Valet button. it is used if your remote doesnt work and you need to turn your alarm off. If you bought the car used it is very possible that the owner before you had an alarm and maybe taken it out. When an alarm is installed, that button, if in fact is a Valet button, should be hidden. But that definately looks as if that is what it is. Whoever took the alarm out, if they did, prolly didnt take it out so there wouldnt be a hole in the paneling.
