Hell fire, I've just been 'fighting' with my fuse holder ('89) and it will not come away like the one in the pic, it's as though all the wires are just a bit too short, real pain in the neck trying to plug things back in again.
Why would the glass be anything other than half full?

You really have trace the wires it could be for anything, but depending on the fan fitted it could have a relay.

Looks like it might have been for auxiliary lights, fog/spot?
