What are these connections under the dash?
I've got my dash out in order to remove the heater box to repair the flaps and see if I can figure out why they don't work properly and on the passenger side, I have what looks to be a vacuum line and a connector that looks like they should be plugged into something. I didn't unplug them during the dash removal, so I'm not sure if they're supposed to be hooked to something or not...can someone tell me?

I just had that apart recently too.
That vacuum hose connects to a rigid black vac hose on my car. I feel like it controls the recirculate function on my climate control. Do you have the auto CC or the manual climate control?
I can't remember for sure but feel like the plug may be connected to the temp sensor on the dash itself.

I've got the auto cc, "Climatronic" setup.
I don't see any mating connections that those might connect to. I'll have to look at everything again.
Always fun pulling things apart after someone else has broken, lost, or improperly reconnected half the stuff.

I took my glove box out to get a better look ---
Here is the wire connection. it looks like it isn't connected to anything on my car either but is mounted on the blower.
As for the Vac line, here's what it looks like on my car...
it goes from there through the firewall...
and out this boot (I'm pretty sure)...
and to this vacuum non-return valve to the right of the heater core hoses up top...
Hope this helps!

You don't happen to have pictures of how the glove box mounts, do you?
Mine is out and the plastic bracket that is around it has two of the corners broken right off and I'm not sure if there's supposed to be other brackets under there to hold it up as the PO had it held up by two bolts in opposite corners and it was flopping around.
