Dash Wiring question

hi, I mapped out the wiring behind the dash/gages - and have a question. There is a green wire with white tracer, and a black wire - both have bullet style tips - i have no idea what they are supposed to connect to? Everything seems to be accounted for.
Also, i was wondering the purpose of the two indicator lamps on the dash - one is a red wire with white, and the other is green with a blue tracer - I would guess one of them is to show ignition, the other is generator light?

The red with white stripe goes to the green high-beam indicator, and the green with dark blue stripe goes to the amber turn signal indicator.
green with white stripe is the main tail light circuit- not sure why it would have a bullet tip on it- it should go to the "T" connector on the main lighting switch...
The scary thing is that I recalled all of this from memory - so anyone please correct me if my memory is wrong about any of this..

My fuzzy memory tells me the same thing.
The two indicator lights on the dash are for turn signals and high beam. The blue light is the high beam indicator and the amber/red light will flash when the turn signals are on.

thanks esteban! i checked the wiring diagram and sure enough the green/white, and black wires dangling near the gages is for the dash mounted light. I hadn't noticed those wires a few months back and i found another source of power for the dash light. i'll fix it back up so its wired correctly.
