Vents in trunk?

I had the liner out of the trunk over the weekend and I noticed that are vents (with soft rubber louvers/flaps) on either side of the trunk. Any ideas what they are for? Thanks.

They allow air to exit the car when you shut a door / trunk. Makes it easier to shut the doors / trunk.

Venting....

They are the other half of your heater vent system - you can't have an outside inlet, and a three speed fan, without somewhere for the air to get out.
