I found this one in a box that my painter returned to me. He removed it before paint - so I must have left it in there when it went to paint shop.

I think it is for the 2 rubber hoses for the windshield washer - at the firewall. The car is an early '72 and uses the spare tire pressure for the washer.

Does it matter which way it goes in? Thanks in advance.

Two holes make me suspect it's for the washer hoses through the ... back of the dash (firewall?)/behind the dash. I would install it with the "large" side facing where the water & dirt would enter so I think that's from the trunk (front one... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ) or from where access is best.
