Wiring Info/Question

While looking for spot to mount VIAIR gauge when system shows up, I popped the storage comp out to take a look at things and low n behold a wiring conection attached to it. Green and grey or black with white stripe, they do not have power to them. Checked with ignition on/off.
Any one know what they are for.
Pic taken with cell phone, sorry for clarity.
2011 XLT CC.
Thx

Below the power port and just above the drivers right knee theres a "storage" cuby hole type thing a couple of inches wide and deep. Perhaps for coins.

If it's behind that little storage compartment on the drivers side of the dash, then it's the passenger side airbag disable switch. I think it's only used in the standard cab models.

VIAIR 10007 should be on door step today.
Install next fri durring my week off. Then air bags to follow that, and yes the posibility of air horn may be in the future.
Have one that was my Dads that I have been hauling around for years just waiting for a use, It is a old brass one, have to dig it out of the shed and hook it up to air n see how it sounds...
Should have pics to follow....
