Question What is this???

When I was putting in my Kuehl center vent, I ran into an obstacle of the unknown kind

It is behind the ashtray area, and has a hose that is attached to this hole in the dash just behind the cruise stalk

Does anyone know what it is and what purpose it serves? It looks like some kind of miniature fan. Thanks

+1 I think it works in conjunction with the TC mounted on one of the flapper boxes.

Well worth any hassle to install the vent though, the output is amazing.
