Default Swapping out L-98 for Victor Jr/Holley 4BBL Throttle Body - Have a TPS Question

Hey all,
I'm switching out my L-98 for a 4bbl throttle body set up and the new tps switch is the newer LT-1 style switch. So now I have to change out the plug from my harness to fit the new switch. I picked up the plug that fits this new tps from GM but all the new wires are plain white. Does anybody know which color wire goes into which prong? The plug kind of reminds me of a smily face or something to this effect. :bb
If anyone can help me with this I would greatly appreciate it!
Thanks,
Joel

Bueler?, Bueler?
Anyone? Anyone?
Man, I was hoping somone with an L-T1 would be able to tell me how their throttle position switch is wired. If someone gets a chance could you take a look at your own car and tell me what color wire goes into which prong. (With the face looking at you) I'm thinking its black in the left eye, grey in the right, and dk blue in the mouth. :bb I know thats kind of silly but its the best way I could think of to describe what I'm looking at.
A big "Atta Boy" (or girl) to anyone who can help.

The TPS should be labeled A-B-C (and I think the connector is also, but not sure on that part) the color references are:

A – Grey
B – Black
C – Blue

Hope this helps. :thumbs:

Vetboy you get the "ATTA BOY". On closer inspection of the part, the letters are molded into the plug. But you have to look real close to see them.
Thank you very much!
