Default '79 wiring question (console harness)

I'm re-asembling my interior. I'm installing a new ctr console and found some extra wires.

Mines a 4-spd and I noticed an empty light-bulb plug, does this illuminate the gear position on an automatic or should I be using it?

Finally, from the driver's side of the harness there's a dbl (light)blue/ yellow wire w/clip, and thick purple w/ thick yellow wires w/clip... are these spares in this harness?

Thanks, Teddy

The yellow and purple set are the wiring for the park neutral switch on an automatic.
