Under the dash about 6” to the left of the hood popper. Yours is likely empty so you’ll need the relay.

A single large gray wire runs from the relay down the drivers kick panel and along the door sill. It’s all alone in its own harness until it reaches the drivers side quarter area and then it plugs into the hatch harness. You might want to make sure this wire is present.

Gray/yellow stripe wire runs solo down the drivers sill. You’ll want to confirm it’s actually there

It plugs into the drivers side kick panel into this plug. I’m assuming the other wires that aren’t connected to anything are for convertible top operation.
