2 holes in the dashboard. Don’t remember taking anything out of there

I think one of them is for a tiny little toggle switch. Most of my trucks have it. IIRC it activates the dash lights? I never had one that worked, so I'm no expert in that realm. I use the other for momentary fuel pump switch..

The switch for the dash lights on this truck was under the dash near the steering column left side. So I put it back the same. I will just leave those other holes empty. I only seen them for the first time yesterday when I was installing the dash trims. Never knew they were there before that.

I thought those holes were under the dash, left side of wheel. They are in the upper dash part with the hole for the windshield crank?

Nah those holes are in the center under the winder. These holes are on the far left

The holes are for the upper bracket of the hand brake lever (if the brake lever is on the left side)
