are you having trouble with the one pin connectors?
thay fit in the fuse box, one in the constant 12V supply (the one with the fuse or relay) and the other is connected to the 12V supply also but only activates when lights are turned on.
I think pin 1 & 2 from memory on the fuse box. Use a multi meter to be sure.
Fuse box is located behind the cover under the steering wheel.
Hope that helps...

okay im still a little confused. i made a illustration to show what ive done and what im confused about. the side with the relay and fuse (black coloured lines) is connected to the battery one the positive terminal right?
then on the other side is a small one wired connection that is coloured red. im not sure where that goes but looks like it connects both the harnesses. on the other harness coloured blue has a brown one pin connector, a ground connector. not sure where i can hook up the brown wire and the ground wire to. confused here.

thanks, yeah will do that when i get the time to. yeah the whole car is gonna be painted in milano red again. lol or just a little redder
well the fenders and grill are aftermarket, bonnet, headlights, and front bar are original. it might look a little tight cause i had an accident then decided to do a facelift after wards. might of been from the accident cause the passanger side looks better than the driver
