What is it for?

Hello everyone 

I know many of you will think OMG doesn't he know that! But having skimmed through the whole owners manual I still cannot find what the panel on the rear door of the CR-V is for. 

Looking from the back of a RHD car it's the panel with an obvious gap around it located on the LHS directly beneath the door handle and model letters. At first I thought it may be a storage area, with maybe a corresponding entry behind it on the inside of the door but it's not. I assume that on a LHD car there's one on the opposite side!

Any answers please on a postcard to The Dummy in the Honda CR-V Northamptonshire.
