I assure you're speaking of the floor vents. Heat/air. (in all models, not just prestige)

Nope the ones I am talking about are on both sides of the console just under the cup holder. I was thinking that they have something to do with the thermo controlled cup holder but I feel hot air coming out regardless if the cup holder is turned on or not.

Are you talking about the item circled in the pic? If you look inside the vents, there are cresent-shaped pockets which makes me think it's a coin holder.
