Where do these wires connect?

I have 2 black ground wires (2 on the right in first picture) on 87 camaro grounded under my dash on the drivers side.

The other ends - one has metal connector and other is stripped bare wire.

Any help appreciated.

These look aftermarket. They are probably left over from some kind of an alarm install or other electrical device. You can remove them with no ill effects.

Thanks for reply Lou, but I purchased the car new in '87. No aftermarket added.

Can anyone out there take a look under their dash?

Original owner?
CONGRATULATIONS! You got to enjoy the car the way it was made, not as a rattlecan 20 years later, like the rest of us.

The wires do not ring a bell and they sure do not look like stock GM wires (too thin, non-stock connector pin too). I sure don't have wires like these attached in that spot.
Have you never had anything aftermarket in the vehicle? No GPS, no alarm, no radio or amplifier?
