The harness coming out the driver side below the brake booster is for all your lights and has the wiring for the engine. The harness coming out of the passenger side under the heater box is for the heater-a/c and all the crap that goes to the computer.

ummmm. Still need more info. Have you put a different motor in your car or something??? If not you might not want to cut them off just yet as your car might not run without them. :lol: Otherwise like Blake said their for your heater/ac and the rest go to the computer witch alot of us don't use anymore.

If you don't have a cpu/heat system you only need wires going to your starter ,alt,and dist. all coming from the drivers side (unless your using factory gauges).

Yeah, well then that whole harness should be dead and just hangin there anyways. If it was me I'd pull it all aside first (just to make sure) before I cut it. If nothing hooks to nothing go to town. You should be able to unplug it from your computer and pull it out not?
