I recently purchased this car, and someone cut the ignition relay harness and all out and bypassed it. I have a new harness and relay, 5 pin, labeled 1-5. I need guidance on which wires go to which pin. I am having a hard time finding this on the internet. Any help would be appreciated.

Yep, they don't show that only the color of the wires and then the relay only plugs in one way so you need to orenant the connector correctly to the replay before the wiring can begin. Thanks for the images and video it helps.
