I have the diagram and still not sure because mine seems weird. Buying parts today and want to get free shipping so I may as well just get whatever is supposed to go here.

If you don't have a BA-6 gas heater under the bus then nothing goes there, you'll have to ask your PO what aftermarket switch might have been added, maybe fog lights?, looks too small for a cig lighter.
Why do you have two hazard switches?, and why is part of one dangling? _________________ Rust NEVER sleeps and stock never goes out of style.
Please don't PM technical questions, ask your problem in public so everyone can play along. If you think it's too stupid post it here

Here is a pic from my 76's dash. Don't mind the speedo unit and non VW things but you can see the flasher switch and Heater control switch if you open it up.
