Default Anybody know what this plug is for?

Does anyone know what this plug is for? It's not plugged into anything. All I have on the front of my console is the 12v plug in. I have my dash apart while putting LEDs and switches in and if these don't go to anything I'm just going to tape it off and put it back behind the dash and Drexel down the two plugs that don't do anything so I can put in switches.

That might be for the climate controls for an upgraded package, like a lariat with the auto conttols.
Just a guess though

On my Lariat the lighter is on the left, and the back up sensor is on the right, and there is a plug in the middle slot that goes nowhere. Just plugs for different options I guess.
