General What does this switch do?

[Cookiebella]

Hi All

I'm in the process of stripping out the interior of my 1972 FIAT500 F and discovered this switch on the vertical section below the left hand side of the rear seat.

Can anyone tell me what it does please.

Also, I'm going to replace the original rubber mats which are falling apart with carpet and wondered if there are any recommendations as it's difficult to assess the quality from various supplier's websites.

Thanks

Ian

Not an orginal switch, relatively modern minature toggle Yuo will have to trace the wires to see where they go. Might be an ignition cut-out immobiliser, not uncommon on older cars.
