Hey guys; found 2 unused leads after my full restoration behind the glove box (I didnt disaessmble the car) and they are a blue and a brown lead; consulting the wiring diagram for 68's, they are for the time delay relay.
Can anyone tell me where this is, and what it does?

It would go about where the leads were and it was used to control an optional light around the ignition switch.

Hmmmm; dont think I have a light around the ignition switch; I'm now wondering why my wiring harness would have these leads with the 90 degree end on them as well.

They were a standard part of the harness but only used if the option were installed.  It was cheaper to make up a sort of universal harness than try to wire it in individually and set the special harnesses aside for the proper cars.

if those wires are at the glove box ,if its an ac car they go on the bottom rt side of the ac box

But in which case the same explanation would apply if you dont have ac.

not for these wires, they are for ac only.
