What model and what year car are you dealing with? I think I could answer about half of those questions if I only knew the answer to these two questions.

Direction indication flasher - turn signal flasher should be located behind radio console.

dashboard lamps with built-in switches -

outside lightning switch - sounds like headlight switch left side of dash

Instrument panel lights switch - ?

instrument panel lights and side lamps repeater rheostat - rheostat knob in center dash, maybe

selector switch for outer lightning and anti-dazzle flashes - lever on steering wheel

three position ventilation switch - heater switch on center lower console?

Sorry, some of the items seem to repeat themselves. I've got a '72 model wiring diagram I can send you that may be easier to understand or you can email me for my phone # and I'll help you. I've been through the wiring harness on my 72 several times.
