Re: What are these wires??

The back and white one looks to be the VATS plug. It should plug into a connector with the same color wires at the base of the steering column. The other one, I have no idea about.

I believe the bigger plug is for the interior lights on the AC controls. Not sure about the smaller one

Re: What are these wires??

do you have dash lights? if not the larger one may be for that. I am sorta in the same boat except the connectors were cut off.
