Default relays? what are they for??

so i finally dropped my motor back in. And im connecting everything up and i run into these "relays" which i do not remember and have no idea where the plugged into and what they are for. Can anyone tell what they go to? Im pretty sure they were mounted right on the radiator support, right behind the driver side headlight. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Correct, cars that didn't have A/C didn't have that harness at all, just white plastic cover over the plug that harness plugged into.
