access door between lights above mirror

What is the little access door in the top console above the rear view mirror for? It's on the same console the outside air temp and compass is. It's a little flip type door that has some connectors inside it. What is it used for and why?

It's for the optional garage door opener.

Well i was thinking about tying into that for power for a radar detector and cell phone bracket. since it's useless otherwise, that makes it a great 12 volt power source.

Not totally useless

...giggle...

Now i just need to figure out what i can put a switch up there for. and rewire some stuff for an LED.

I got out of the car stereo world years ago, but all that crap i learned on how to mess with interior stuff is good for something i guess.
