WOW, it's an export car in Kuwait. I'll bet getting parts and pieces is a real bear to deal with.

I think I know all cable where they go, but I haven’t installed the dash yet, waiting for other things to complete first, I will update you.

Thanks , keep watching please
I will post more photos and update daily
I've got a couple more pics if you need them. Great looking car by the way......Same color as my Demon.
The letters written on the controller match the tape color on the cables at the box.

I believe that you should have 10" brake drums on all 4 corners on a drum brake car if my memory serves me correctly???

I will check, again and measure
You were asking about wiring diagrams in another thread. In the back of the electrical section of the service manual you will find the factory diagrams.
Digitized Service Manuals are available here. Service Manuals – MyMopar
It will also help with the heater cables.
Updates and corrections were often covered in Technical Service Bulletins, which can be found here: The 1970 Hamtramck Registry Library Page (1970 - 1974)
Some tips on working with electrical diagrams are in the Technical Conference. Browse MTSC by Model Year – 1968 – MyMopar
(A better index of the Master Tech Conference is here Master Technician Service Conference - Chrysler's Training for Mechanics )
The diagrams can be used for differnet purposes, such as connecting the wires correctly or trouble shooting.
For understanding a circuit or circuits, its often worth the trouble to redraw the wires. For example a functional schematic
These are useful to follow or learn the path electricity flows from the power source to the items needing power.
Chrysler wires are labled on the diagram with a letter and number (and sometimes a segment letter). The first letter indicates function or connection.
A Battery
R Alternator
J Ignition (I is not used probably to avoid confusion with 1 and l)
L Lights
H Horn
G Gages
Q Accessory (Everying not needed to run the engine)
This followed by a - and the SAE wire gage size and a letter code indicating the insulation color.

I was looking for headlamp relay with the connection cable, if you have information or pictures please
On these cars there was no headlight relay. The power goes through the headlight switch. That said, making or buying a relay harness is a good way to get brighter lights and reduce the electrical load on the original connectors.
Schematically the factory headlight circuit looks like this:
Power from the alternator (unles the engine is off) goes to the headlight switch's B1 terminal.
With the switch pulled all the way out, electricity flows to the hi/low switch on the floor, then to the multiconnector on the firewll and on to the headlights.
( there is a 15 amp circuit breaker built into the B1 circuit of the headlight switch.)

My car has A01 option ashtray, clove box, ignition light, etc and it supposed to turn light off after 30 second or so after ignition key or door open, that’s way I should have headlights relay I think
That will be a delay switch tied to the interior lighting, not related to headlight circuit.
The 'headlight switch' is a multifunction switch.
1. Switch for headlights.
2. Switch for marker lights (aka parking lights, tail lights, and fender side lamps)
3. Control dimmer for instrument panel lighting. (Rotating the knob)
4. One of several switches for turning on the dome and other interior lights.
Electrically #4 is not related to the first three.
The dome light circuit is just this.
Any switch after the dome light can complete the circuit.
If that makes sense, we can look at the optional delay switch and light package.

I don't know the part number but if it is for a headlight buzzer, that is electrically seperate from the interior lamps.

The delay relay itself is shown here: Time delay relay
Map light connector shown here: What are these four yellow wires for under dash?

So if I leave it out it should not effect electric circuit?
I'm not that familiar with all of these options. Someone else here may be. Also the diagram you show is a little different than the one in the service manual.
Let me see what your car came with and see if I can make heads or tails of this.
edit: looking at your information sheet I only see the A01 package listing the time delay ignition switch light.

First picture is this for headlights relay connection?
Second picture yellow wire connection with steering column ignition light
Last picture time delay relay and the yellow wire I think connection for extra connection maybe
