REd is Brake light goes into a black wire with red stripe

GRy is parking light similar colour on main loom

Black is blinker similar colour may have green or white strip depending on Left or right

The numberplate light jumps off the left hand grey or parker wire.

I read it on FACEBOOK so it must be true
