Default Shift light guys...tach wire? Help!

The seach is down, and for the life of me I can't find the harness that has these 3 white wires in it. Can someone point me in the right direction?!

Thanks

If nobody gets back to you by tomorrow, I will take a picture of mine. I will be working in that area to run some wiring to my gauge pillar.

Here are a few pics that might help.
After removing your driver side knee bolster, the wire bundle is just behind (and tucked up under) the steering column bracket/brace as seen in the pics.
It's been a while since I wired my tach light but seems there were a total of 4 solid white wires in the bundle.
The wire I needed for my tack was just slightly off colored than the other three. It was kind of a beige color if I remember correct.
