Hi guys,
I guess i must have posted my Question in the wrong way.
So if any one has a R/H driver 164 q 1991 and has ever seen the two wires in the photo connected
to anything could you write me and let me know what they were connected to, as mine are not and I was hoping to find out.

Thanks Shane

I don't have knowledge of RHD 164's, but I would think that this would also be there on a LHD.

However, I don't know what this is for, hopefully someone else can contribute.

It looks like they are original and originate from a cableloom.

Is this drawing of any help?

Looks like the the inside of the connector E10 of the foglight.

They might be the wiring for the horns on the LHD Models already on the loom from factory. Check the wiring to the horn on your RHD car to see if the wiring is the same colour

What type of 164 are you driving? The S models had wiring for the adjustable shocks. The base and L models have the wiring, but it is taped up and hidden. I found the leads for the rear shocks on my L when I removed the rear seat. (Which look very similar to your mystery leads!) Not sure about the front leads, but I've never removed my front bumper. What are the wire colors? I will look them up in my wiring manual.

This is not true. Ls do not have CDS wiring "taped up and hidden". It's a totally different loom, different speedometer as well. The CDS connectors are round quasi-bayonet style and the wire is specially outfitted with all-weather sheathing similar to airbag cabling, although airbag cabling is 3-wire. Furthermore, the leads for the rear shocks are not routed under the rear seats but are found in the forward floor of the trunk.
