Default wiring harnesses

Thanks for letting me join the Forum. I have a question concerning wiring harnesses on an 84 C4. My knowledge of Corvettes stopped in 1972 with my car. Although I have taken it apart and put it back together two times I can't seem to figure out where the wiring harness couplings are on my 84 for the brake light harness and also the wiring in the doors. I am taking my C4 down to the frame and it's going well until this point. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Door harness through the hinge pillar conduit is the instrument panel harness, you would need to disconnect components in the door and feed the wiring back through the conduit to remove the doors. That shouldn't be an issue.

The harness to the rear of the car runs down the right side and there's a connector under the right side of the dash, I'd think an easy find if you follow the harness at the right side to under the dash.

Your doing this disassembly without a '84 FSM (Factory Service Manual) in hand? If you don't have one I'd suggest you get one.

Thank you, I will try your suggestions.
I do have a manual ordered. As background, have no intention of using the car, I'm taking it apart and will be selling parts I don't need as I just want the frame and Chassis for another project.
