need help....hand full of cut wires under dash

since I got my car several interior electrical items havent worked(dome light,horn,trunk relese,gas gauge doesnt work right,rear window defrost)
I found a hand full of wires under the dash that have been cut by the previous owner. some Im guessing went to an alarm, but I dont think all of these wires would be for just and alarm.
Ive encluded 2 pic's of the wires. can any of you tell me what these wires go/went to? Im hoping I can fix some of my nonworking electrical items by figuring out what these wires go to.

Man !! did someone tried to steal that car? I cant see any reason to cut these wires. Take my advise and let a professional guy take a look at it. Yes it would cost more but you get it right from the begining . Trust me on this one: its hell when you connect stuff you dont know anything about. The previous owner of my car did that. Cost me a fortune to fix it.

The pair of relays was to interface the alarm's keyless entry outputs to your cars doorlocks.



the thin red/black wire pair is for the siren under the hood. the twisted pair of red, black, and blue wires to the right are probably ground, constant +12V, and switched ignition +12V.



Take a look at my car alarm related webpage for more info about the connections:
