That looks like fun. I suppose the ones at the top connect to the gearstick loom bit. the white ones at the bottom definitely go onto the overdrive switch, I guess you already have it connected to the fusebox, so one of those wires must go to earth. Which leaves one spare. I guess if you fit it up it might become clearer.

Dave's close.

The long black wire goes to the o/d solenoid, the red & black (in the grey sheave) go to the g/stick, the 2 greens go to the reverse switch & the other 2 go to the o/d inhibitor on top of the g/box.
