Empty Relay Socket in Engine Bay

There is an empty relay socket in the fuse panel on the left side of the engine bay...

Even the picture in the Bentley manual has it empty (see circled spot) - anybody know what this would be used for?

Not for a relay. This is the test socket for idle adjustment.

It is to activate the ABS, traction control and power steering!

As above, it to set the idle.

Not sure I want any of that .... But if it added cooled seats I might be interested.

Pop the cover off a standard black, round 911 relay, plug it in and just push the contact together to bridge the terminals.
