I found these while removing the interior in my 1986 Westy. The one with a screws on each end I found on the passenger side under the rear seat. The other one I found under the cabinets on the driver's side. Anyone know what they are used for?

Pretty sure the one on the right is the end of one of those 'universal hammers' that has built in screwdrivers and whatnot...my kids have one!
Not sure about the other. If it's metric it's probably worth holding on to. |

| That one on the left, is the shorter end 3/8”? It looks like a terminal bolt for a side post battery. |

Near where I found the one on the left is a "Mystery" hole on the passenger's side behind the sliding door about where the seat is. Might be coincidence, but the one on left screws into the hole.

Is that the knob that the bottom of the slider door curtain attaches to? I believe the one on my '90 Westy is black plastic but the shapes are similar.

Pretty sure those are for hanging an interior curtain somewhere.

Definitely not the curtain hardware I was thinking of. Does your van have an upholstered armrest just below the ashtray as pictured in the first photo below? It seems the mystery hole may be associated with the aremrest?
