Ok, So I screwed up. I took my dash off and went to town fixing some wiring problems. Good news is I fixed the wiring problems, Bad news is I dont know where 1 plug plugs into.

I forgot to take a picture of the plug when I left this morning but Ill explain where and what it looks like then Ill ad the picture on later.

It is located under the drivers side dash closer to the door. It has a white connector thats about an inch and half wide. It comes from the harness that goes over the gauges and goes to the passenger side. It splits off, one side goes to the connector and the other side goes to cruise control and then the rest of the harness goes down to the fuse box. Its wrapped in foam. Thats really all I've got until I can get you a picture. Any ideas?
 
Sounds like part of the ignition harness. A picture will help figure out what it's for.
 
Not sure without a pic. How many wires are in it? Almost sounds like the clutch switch
 
Yeah, I know. Ill put a picture of it up tonight.

All of this is going of of memory but its got about 5 wires going to them. They are all a thicker gauge maybe 12 or 14. Noticeably thicker than all the other wires. It is wrapped in the same foam as the ignition wires under the steering wheel but its not square like those. Its only got 2 rows and its a 12 or 16 pin I believe but only 5ish wires.
 
Might just be an extra plug for an option that you car doesn't have. I would start by checking what doesn't work and go from there. Willing to bet that everything will work and it isn't needed.
