What are these things on the dash?

Under the cigarette lighter there's a hidden input socket I can see it reflected in my iPod sitting in the tray. Is it a USB port?
There are 2 buttons to the left of the light control that don't seem to press inward. I don't see them mentioned in the manual/app I downloaded.
Thanks in advance.

To the left of the power port/lighter, there is a USB port. The two buttons to the left of the headlight control are for fog lights, if the car is so equipped. The bottom one is for the front fog lights and the top one is for the rear fog lights. If your car doesn’t have them (factory JCWs would not have front fog lights anyway), there are just blanks instead of buttons.

Yeah my JCW doesn't have front or rear fog lights so those 2 buttons are fake news. But the thing directly underneath the lighter isn't visible, it changes colors like the mood lights but I think it's an input for something. You'd never see it I only see its reflection in the iPod screen laying on the little shelf. The usb port is to the right of the lighter socket I connected my iPod to that works great.
