I've got them on my 90 valver as well; nothing to do with blowing air onto the windscreen to stop it steaming is it? (Coz if it is I gotta tell you it don't work in my car!)

Maybe it's for adding air con vents to mk2's abroad? other than that all I can think is it's for keeping your ginsters sausage roll warm on the motorway!

Well after a trip to a local breakers i managed to borrow a set of extra boot pannel push clips which seem to fit the dash holes nice and tidy it up a bit.

I have them on my '90 16V also.....after a bit of asking around the best answer I've had is that they are there to allow the plastic to 'breathe' and stop it cracking in extreme heat or years of sunlight coming in through the windscreen.....  Other than that, I'm stumped too!

Gambit - That makes sense for the door pillars!

Mk2GTI2.016v  - I know what you meant about the suicide doors :) I guess the way the mould is, it does suggest a hand could fit in there :)

Now, those damn holes :)
