I've been doing a frame up restoration on my 59 MGA 1500 for several
years now and I'm finally tackling the wiring.
I bought the Wiring harnesses from Moss Motors and everything went well
until I got to the Dash Harness.
Now I'm a little unsure of the connections.
I'll describe the Dash harness and where I think (not sure) the wires attach:

Green            bare                         F terminal on Turn Signal
Indicator
Red/White      bulb                        Turn Signal light
 
Black             eyelit                       Ground on Tack
Red/White       bulb                        Tack light

Red                eyelit                       Rheostat
Red/White       3 to single eyelit       Rheostat

Red/white        bulb                         Speedometer
Black               2 to single eyelit       Ground on Speedometer

Red                  2 bare wires(thick)    ??? Headlamp Switch ???
Red                  2 bare wires(thinner) ??? Fog Lamp Switch ???
Brown/Blue        bare                         Headlight switch

Black                2 to single eyelit        Fuel Gauge

Brown/Black       bare                         Horn Button

Green                 2 to single eyelit       Water temp gauge

Brown/Black        bare                         ??? Cigarette Lighter ???

Black                   3 to single eyelit       Water temp gauge

Brown/Blue           bare                          Ignition switch

Black                    bare                         ??? Horn button ???

Green                   bullit connector          ??? Heater ???

Red/White            bulb                          Light above Water temp
Gauge

Red                      bulb                          Dome Light

If anyone out there can straighten me out I'd really appreciate it.
Also I've just recently joined the list and I think it's great to hear from 
people who share a love for british cars as I do.
Thanks
