Question Anyone care to help with a little wiring?

So, i'm still working on rewiring my FC after removing a godawful rats nest of DIY alarm wiring.... I've uploaded some pictures to help with some questions I have. And yes, I've consulted the wiring diagrams. I was hoping someone with some first hand experience could help.

1. What all is supposed to be grounded to the steering column? The only thing grounded her before was a relay for the alarm.

2. This little light bulb is connected to the harness near by a green/white wire and a blue/red wire. What is it? The wiring looks stock to me, but this is the only rx7 i've ever seen in person, so

3. There's these connecters behind the door panels, but nothing is connected to them. Is there supposed to be?

Thanks to anyone that takes the time to read this. I admit i'm kind of out of my element here, but I'm trying to learn!

Off the top of my head, #2 look like the light for the ring around the ignition tumbler. It should bolt into the steering column cover somewhere.

#2 someone hacked into that light,as it should just have two wire going to the bulb.find out where the other wires go to.(gr and Blue). If they are not important, cut them.
I think #1 may have held the Fuel pump relay on an N/A car..black relay with a yellow bottom.
#3 is not important unless you are gonna run alarm,power windows,locks,**** like that.It is all stock **** and not important if it doesn't pertain to your Model.They leave it unhooked.
I am assuming the windows are standard Crank style.
