Default What is....

The plastic piece mounted on the front of the headliner towards the front between the sun visors? It is about two by three inches and used to contain something such as a light...

Just bought my first Cherokee (96 Sport 4x4) and have no idea what it is. I can stick my finger in a hole on the bottom of it and feel a couple of loose wires. Im guessing it was a map light or something?
