'90 vert auto trans w/ electronic climate control and bose(bose isn't going back in)

Ok before you guys start, yes I should have labeled them, yes I should have a manual, yes I am looking on ebay this morning for a shop manual, But I would like to get this issue taken care of by the weekend. So.....

I was putting the dash and wiring harness back into this project car I have and have a few wire connectors that I dont know about. When I took it apart I just did a quick glance over and all the plugs seemed to be color/shaped coded so you couldn't confuse them going back together, well I found 3 sets that are the same when putting it back together. They have white plugs, and come out under the passenger side dash. Two of them come from the engine wiring harness that comes through the fire wall on the passenger side. Two seem to come from around the fuse box direction and two come from the center direction. Got some pics, and suggestions will be appreciated, If not I'll wait till I get a manual.






And this one is just one that was on the drivers side that I found cut. This harness was pretty well hacked on by someone in the past to put an alarm in. I found this when pulling the alarm out.

So nobody has taken their dash apart recently for a heater core replacement? Figured one of those guys would be able to help.

Thanks a bunch. I'll have a look at it this weekend and see if I can sort it out with this information.

The yellow connector looks like a Supplemental Inflatable Restraint (SIR) connector. the red piece is a lock to lock the connector together. Blue and green conductors, that doesn't make sense. the two conductor connection shows a Green with blue tracer and a green with red tracer.

Has the air bag been deployed in the car?

No it has not, or atleast I don't think so. Its a project car and the airbag/derm module were stripped before I got it.
