Default Missing grill vent or light?

Trying to find the piece that's missing in the picture. It's missing on both sides of the rear interior trim on .2 GT3. Looked at pictures on the web and couldn't find gt3 trim that had this piece missing or cut out for whatever it is. Thoughts or part number would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

Looks like someone cut that out for a shock canister.

Any chance your car had rear seats added to it at some point? That piece is what secures/locks the rear seats in the upright position. This ad, last pic, shows it.

I can try to find the part number if interested.

Really not sure...what's going on back there. Thanks as always Joe for the "education".

Maybe the panels were switched out and there was never a back seat.

Whatever the case is just get a plate to block it off. If you ever upgrade your shocks, you may be able to fabricate a nice piece for the canister hose to exit.

If you choose to replace those panels, this member has them for sale.

He wants to sell as a lot, but maybe he can be convinced to sell individually.

Should pay more attention to the back but it does appear that diy seats were likely installed in the past as I noticed a rectangular opening for seat belt receptacles.
