Default interesting detail on 1934 dash

So a customer had a question on glove box hinge mounting to the dash... using the adage that a photo is worth a 1000 words I took pix of an original dash we have to show the mounting tabs for the hinge pin. Lo and behold the identical reinforcing bracket is on the left side where it will be under the gauges. Best guess is it also doubles as a reinforcing plate for the column mount and because 1933's could be ambidextrous (RH drive or LH drive) i presume they started that way and continued into 1934. Mind numbing and picking fly-shit out of pepper, but a detail.
