Those are auxiliary power ports. For example if your panel had a tach and/or vacuum gauge, the gauges would've had backlighting which got their power from here.

Thanks Keith. The other panel I got was so hacked, that the back lighting for the air gauge(airbrakes) and the tach were just kind of spliced in. As was everything else. I'm glad I got an unmolested one now.
