Trace it back to where it connects to the main loom. It looks like an aftermarket alarm system was installed at some point.

What gauges are you wiring in? You shouldn't need to play with a majority of those for wiring up gauges.
 
The basic dash gauges, tach, speed, etc...old one had some issues. I wanted to clean this up so I can put the panel back on.

Also, bought the car like this, said other than the dash gauges having some hiccups everything else was fine, but looks horrible LOL
 
i would replace the hole harness that's horrid go down to the junk yard and tear there car apart and take notes on how everything comes apart or breaks LOL meh its the junk yard it only takes one dash fire to toast your car all up :notgood:
 
Not many turbo's end up in the junk yard here, if they do, they're already picked clean LOL.
I mean if I could possibly just clean this mess up instead of using an entire different harness that'd be fine with me.

The old one is wired a lot different than the newer one, and what they connect to are a lot different.
