dead on guys. The only difference i found when i layed them out is the Blue/Red wire for the ATF. I'll turn this into the Defrost wire. The term 50 wire had a white stripe on it, but thats it.

Do you also have a grey 0.5mm wire? Betcha don't, and the flat/clear one is the "SU" wire (grounded whenever key is in ignition, sounds a buzzer if you open the driver's door with the key in).
A clever alternate use for this wire is to run it directly to a relay (not through the doorjamb switch) so that the relay closes anytime you insert the key - then use the relay output to power your stereo or whatever... this way the accessories will work without having to turn on the ignition yet can't run your battery down if you should forget to turn them off when you leave..
