Bubba built my hotrod
Eddie 70 is trying to walk me through my engine wiring and well.. I hit a road block. 
found this fuse holder off the horn relay. I dont remember where I put the other end of it (6 months of not working on it will do that to you), nor do I remember where it goes to.
Anyone with a late 69 have one of these?
FWIW. . . I do have an aftermarket stereo in the car, but I re did the entire thing and I didnt put speakers in the engine bay.. I never had electric fans in it, not sure if someone else had them though.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated

The MoneyPit is not a Chevrolet, it is a Bubrolet. I feel like I should go find the previous owner of my car, and give him some more money for the options he installed. The latest that I have found is the "accessory" hole that he installed in the baggage compartment. It was covered with a piece of black painted fender and a nice seal of clear silicone, along with four screws for good measure. Bubba had stock in silicone I believe, as he used it to seal the tach drive port in the distributor, and the speedo cable.

Sounds like Bubba has been real busy lately making his rounds.
I'm finding new stuff everyday. From rigged up a/c hoses to broken a/c brackets. YES, a broken a/c bracket.
The one I found tonight is a improper carb install. My vette is a 78 with an L48. I would have reason to believe the engine is mostly stock, maybe a mild cam along with the edelbrock peformer intake. Bubba has found a way to bolt the Q-Jet to the manifold using the wrong adapter plate. It is a brand new Q-Jet bolted to some sort of adapter that only has holes for the front 2 carb mount bolts. All 4 spacer bolts are in the manifold but only 2 bolts holding on the carb. I don't think this is normal, maybe that's why it idles rough?
