The headlamp wiring colours are the same from beginning to end and very simple to follow. Blue/white is the live supply to the main beam. Blue/red is the live supply to the dipped beam and black is the earth. These colour wires should plug into the same colour wires/connectors all the way through the car. Do have a look at a wiring diagram :wink:
