I have a 1988 Volvo 740 and recently someone smashed the window and cut the wires to the ignition switch to try and boost the car. Ugh! So now I'm faced with a wiring nightmare. I have the harness off the back of the ignition switch but I seem to have more wires than available connections!?! The color codes are as follows:

Bl-R Bl-R Y-W R R R SB SB Bl-Y P

Now, the leads from the harness are as follows:
Bl-R Y-W R R SB SB Bl-Y P

I have an extra Bl-R and R going to I don't know what. I do have the wiring diagram but I can deduce the connections from the guide and still end up with two extras. What am I missing?
