I think one is for the lighted ash tray and I THINK the other is for the Ebrake sensor. But I am not sure.

How about the lock for the compartment. Maybe it is lit. I know that cable as I saw it on mine but am pulling a blank

definately no light in the compartment, i assume you mean the lockable one with the armrest, i just spent 90 minutes replacing the center console for a new non scratched one so am pretty intimate with it at this point...except for where this stupid plug goes

Dude...do not get "intimate" with your console

You check your old one to see if something was not moved over?

There should be an alarm switch to the console. It is down by the lock.

The locking arm rest (center console) has an alarm switch by the latch. Do you connect that one? Easy way to tell is lock the car with the console lid closed. If the horn beeps then it is not connected.

Maybe heated seats? Pretty sure not the headlight washers. btw, don't all turbos have headlight washers?

Rear window actuators. Only used on the ultra rare Turbonium Unobtainium 4 door model.

If you car has these wires, it's probably been converted from a 4 door.
