Trying to sort this mess out. Can someone help me and tell me/show me where these wires should be connected to?

Also, which is the power windows wire?


These are coming from a relay (blue I think).

White two pin plug with green and green/red is from an immobiliser, and plugs in place of the green loop in the first pic.
White/black and red/yellow from the blue relay go to Q and Z of the accessories socket. They will only fit tin the correct position.
The red/yellow should have a branch with a flying socket on the end of it. The red (part of a red and white parallel twin cable) which goes to the electric antenna, plugs into this.
The blue relay also has a green/blue lead that ends in a flying socket. The green/blue that goes up the LH screen pillar to the sunroof plugs into this, and this wire also has a branch that ends in a flying socket. The green/blue that goes to the cutout for the electric windows plugs into this.
