Question 2003 (W209) CLK500 Bose Amp Replacement & Wires

Hello, new member here and after spending days researching this forum and many others decided to follow the instructions to remove the Bose Amp from the trunk so I can install the aftermarket HU since couldn't find any other alternatives to bypass the D2b Fiber optics in my CLK (pre-facelift).
After I removed the amp, I noticed a few additional wires/harnesses/plugs which were tucked away in the back next to the AMP and I am wondering if anyone knows what those plugs are for or could be used as?



My Amp was connected with the below two plugs (PDF Attachment), I know the orange one is the Fiber Optics Cable, and think the other harness is the speaker wires?? I am uploading few pictures and will appreciate it if any of you fellow experts know what are the other additional plugs are for?
