Could be something cheap and Italian (Ferrari/Fiat? ) or really old Ford - Capri or something.
Think they're one of the TVR 'whoops we bought enough for the next 3000 years' special bits like some of the wiring connectors - probably off a Model T Ford.
Very similar/identical vents are in full view on the dash of the Tamora.

I tried to find them without a lot of luck - However I did notice that air conditioned tour buses have them. So all you need now is a scrap yard for old tour buses!!!!!!
Seriously I did find out they are made by a company called Marbett plastic mouldings but when I contacted them in the UK they knew nothing about the vents.

So Douglas valley it was!

I believe they're also used on the Lotus Elise (top of the dash).
