Are there any attachments for a bulb? Could it have been a map light?

Correct… the aspirator tube for the inside temperature sensor for Comfortron attaches on the back of that opening. Hope this helps, Dave

You see slots like this in old bathrooms. It's for your old razor blades once they are dull. Happy shaving!
