Look at that link but I have no fog lights and the radio is wired into the main fuse box. Doubt that this car had a power antenna. It might be the air conditioner that was added at the dealers and I'm just guessing at that

I concur with Oz. When the early "AC" style headlamp doors with fog lights went away, the fuse and wiring we're repurposed for the newer illuminated side markers. Connected to a different terminal on the headlight switch. 1969-1970ish
