Help identifying a couple electrical connectors.

Been a year and a half and I guess my memory is not great. Anyone know what these are for? Thank you.

So might have figured out the first one looking at some diagrams. Radio? One light blue with red stripe, one yellow with black stripe. So new question. Anyone know which one is ignition hot and which is constant. Thanks.

Radio, yes...blue/red is for radio illumination, yellow/blk is radio power...the radio grounds through the radio case...
the other connector is for the lighter and illumination circuits including vanity mirror....
