Unplugged and Confused

I am re-assembling the dash in my 85 GSL after many months. I found this plug and pigtails in the console near the shifter. I marked most of the other plugs when I disassembled, but this set has no marking. I can't find any matching plugs to connect them to, so I am wondering what they are for? Possibly just part of the wiring harness to be used with an automatic console shifter? This car is manual (stick shift is removed)

The female Red/Blue bullet and and Black male bullet are for the auto-trans shifter illumination.

The four pin connector is the auto-trans Overdrive switch.

It takes some hunting but I found this information in the wiring diagram

if you plug the at connectors together without the light bulb it will blow up the dimmer, so don't do it. you could add more bulbs though
