Default help needed identifying center console wires

I have these wire ends disconnected under my center console when I got the car. Any help identifying them and where they go would be much appreciated. 82 Euro S

looks like 3 sets of wires ,
they are for the amplifier/radio connections (the blades)

The one with smaller ground connection is for the clock.
it should be wrapped with the red wire
Note brown is ground,

the one with the larger ground wire is for the cig lighter socket.
and the hot wire for the cig lighter is black/yellow stripe
The lights plug into each respective housing.

Note make sure that the radio wires are not powered with the key on, if your not going to use them,
as they can short out and fry a harness

What Stan said, plus:

Brown wires are ground (earth). (Brown/colored stripe are switched ground.)
Black/blue are instrument lighting.
Red or black are power.

For future reference, you should include the year of your car as things changed on these cars from year to year.
