Default Miscellaneous Brackets…

So I’m in the middle of doing several installs to my NA8, one of which was doing my clutch. I have some brackets left over that I’m not entirely sure of where they go.

Can y’all help me identify these?

The large one holds the stock exhaust manifold to the bell housing. Unless you’re planning to win a concours, ditch it.

Thank you. I also have these two wires that were snipped off by the previous owner. Any ideas on what they are?
This is on the driver’s side by the strut.

That looks modified, right next to your finger looks like some splices. If we could see the OE color underneath that, it would help.

The bracket above with the stud is for your stock filter box, the other one is part of a two piece bracket that goes by the starter IIRC, a starter bolt goes through it, and a P clamp on the harness bolts to it.

I cut back some of the plastic cover.

I followed the wire and it goes to the furthest right grommet.

That's something aftermarket. Trace it under the dash, probably a fog light switch or similar.
