Need help identifying electrical wires

Can someone please help me identify the wires on the pictures?

Pic 1 - (bad quality...) taken under the rear left tire, looks like the wire is a "gold" color.



Pic 2 - The wire comes ouy near the freshair blower in the trunk (right side). Behind the speedometer/tacometer.... Wire color Yellow.



Pic 3 - Same destination as "pic 2". The wire comes ouy near the freshair blower in the trunk (right side). Behind the speedometer/tacometer.... Wire color brown with withe stipes



Pic 4 - Picture taken off the rear windows. The yellow ones are from the window defroster (i think...). but where to connect? Don't know the brown and the red ones... Where to I connect this?



Pic 5 - Where to connect this blue wire?



Thanks!

/Joachim

best bet is get a haynes or factory manual with a wiring diagram, porsche is pretty good about color codes. brown is always ground. Don.

solid brown is ground, ppsite has a wiring diagram but a little hard to make out details. haynes has black and white pic, perfectly workable, fact manual has beautiful color plate. I scanned my plates but file to big to post here. send me your email and I'll try to get them to you that way. Don

Some sort of switched ground. For example, the wire that leads from the glove box lamp to the glove box door switch is brown/white, while the wire that leads from the lamp to the chassis is just brown.

You don't say what year your car is. Schematics for several years can be found here.

Pick one that's close to your car's year.
