Default 3 Connectors to Nowhere?

So I pulled out the interior trim in the trunk to replace my rear shocks on my 2014 IS350 AWD last weekend, and saw 3 unused connectors hiding on the right side.
Anyone know what they are for? I have the standard audio, maybe for the ML system? Maybe for the shocks on the F Sport?

It seems like the 2014 models were pre-wired for a lot of stuff, whether they had the option or not.
I would guess the connector closest to the shock was for the AVS motor...for the suspension.
The connector closest to the taillight was likely for Parking sensors.
No idea on the third one.
