Somebody did some hacking. They look like factory switches but the cutouts in the dash panel aren't correct.

The one on the far right is the power trunk release. The next one to the left is the rear defrost.

The other buttons look like another defrost switch and trunk release switch that has been made to work "something else"

Normally you would have [rearwiper] [rear defrost] [trunk release] on a fully loaded '82-83 car.
