Mystery connectors under headliner

Hi,

I'm in the process of redoing my headliner and I found a couple electrical connectors: one in the front center above the windscreen and one in the rear center above the back window that I don't recall disconnecting.


Rear

Front
Does anyone know what they go to? I haven't disconnected the wire from the sunroof switch, so the front one isn't that.

Front is for the powered rear view mirror/ also the key system receiver. 315 mhz system.

Rear is for the optional alarm. That's where the inside sensor system goes.
