Unused holes in dash??

1979 SC

My car had the standard vinyl covered dash. I pulled that off, had the paint shop paint the dash body color. Planning to run it without vinyl. I noticed I have 2 switch holes that were not used on my car. I do have the power mirror and sunroof switch on the underside of the instrument cluster area.

Any idea what these two holes on the face of the dash would have been for?
Do they make plugs I could put in there?

I have a friend that I think could 3d print some for me but wondering if there is a purchase option.

I know The one on the right is headlight washer, can not remember what the left one is for- there are blank switch plugs you can install

Where can you get the blank switch plugs? From Pelican?

I discovered the other would have been rear wiper.

a lot of people use one of those switches to activate their front oil cooler fans -- even if you don't currently have a use for them, you might want to still add switches to these spots for future projects/features -

The one on the left is for the rear wiper. Oddly my Targa has the switch, but no rear wiper.

I think on mine the switch makes the clock run fast to set the time
