More fun with connectors

getting close to being done with this 89 IROC and have a couple of rogue connectors I can’t find homes for the pink / orange one is being the ac control and the tan/black or grey appears to hold a very small bulb, but I don’t know where it goes. Any ideas?

We have the bulb in the pass side of the HVAC control - this is a much smaller bulb

Could be the ash tray light. Look on the bottom of the dash straight up from the radio.

If it's that light, I probably wouldnt even bother finding a new bulb. It doesn't really do anything, except consume bulbs.

Thanks - I'm much more worried about the pink and orange connector in the first pic. Any ideas?

Orange is always hot. Pink is hot in run. It's not ringing any bells, but I don't mess with Camaro wiring much.
