wiring question

Ok i have a 72 dart and I bought the m&h wiring harness and I am a little unsure about 2 wires under the dash. I have downloaded the service manual but it really doesn't show what I need. My question is do the red and black wire attach to the posts on the back of the instrument panel as show in the picture. When I got the car they were attached to each other (ex drag car). Thanks and I do have the wiring diagram coming.
