Center console BLUE connector? 1994 FD

I rebuilt shifter a couple weeks ago then ordered a shift boot cover from redline goods. Took 2 weeks to arrive. Just about to connect everything and can't figure out where to connect the blue one below.

I should have taken pictures before disassembly, but didn't plan to have it off for more than the day. Shows how bad my memory is...

APPRECIATE SOME DIRECTION!


What is this blue connector? Where does it connect?

Blue connector coming from floor, different angle

Nowhere to connect the blue connector on the center console cover

Since my car never was BOSE equipped I can’t be sure, but think that might be a connector from a formally equipped model.

Non-functional Acoustic Wave

Thanks for quick reply Sgt!

Searched via Google, could not find similar connector photo, but makes sense as my car has the Bose but Wave system doesn't work.. .

Anyone else have other thoughts? Or can confirm that does have Bose in their FD?

I don't think that's for the bose system. As far as I remember the wires to the sound wave run along the driver's side of the inside chassis.

This plug isn't used on my stock car either as far as I remember. I never looked much into it before, but took a look to make sure. Far as I can tell that is the D3-02 connector based on the annotated harness thread, which appears to be for models equipped with headlight washers (would be in place of the USDM center blank button)

This is based on a very cursory search, but does match the hunch I always had about that connector.

Looks like the OP and I both should’ve/could’ve searched...of course SpinningDorito is right...from the 3rd Gen tech section:
