Question Question about holes next to ashtray?

I got my 2004 MT used. One day I was cleaning the inside of my car when I see two holes on this part (See pic). Now only two things can do this,
One a Vamp lol
Two a guy with a drill

What do you guys think he had right there?

Yeah, Gil, those were put in by the previous owner.

Hard to say what he had since there isn't much room for anything there....

You bought the car from a drug dealer and he stashed small quantities of cocaine and heroin in there.

Its for the mazdaspeed knee pads that they sell at the dealership that states that it helps your knees so that after a day at the track you won't walk like your knees are broken.
I THINK.

I would lean towards the kneepad. Not sure why it would be screwed in, but possible.
Why would anyone put a sub THERE???

strange place for sub volume control.

This seems to be a more popular location:

had to be either the vampire option or he mounted a second cupholder that would not get in the way of shifting.
