LCD Clock I think - usually non-functioning.

Easy enough to pick up a standard column top trim part without the hole I would think if you have no luck finding a blank for your existing one.

I think your cowl trim also has a switch location for heated seats switch ,an expensive part to source !

Sorry I am not making myself clear. The hole in the top is for a temperature display . I believe cowlings with the temperature display often also have a rectangular hole in the side for the heated seat switch . I believe these were fitted to LLE star carat models, maybe Westfaliaetc.
