Ok. So yes, I trawled every post I can find, most last posts were 2015... and yet I have seen a pic recently of these already fitted https://www.ebay.co....tm/264442206218
Why oh why cant they be arsed to at least let you know which wire is what? Anyone in here with them, and how did you fit/wire them?
How do you add pics? If possible?

Hi KAL850,

 

Judging by the pictures there are only three wires per guard - a red, a black & a light blue, if these are Chinese it's pretty likely the red will be the negative, the black the positive and the light blue the earth or ground, I'm not an automotive electrician but dare say they will put a wiring diagram in with the goods to explain the wiring set up surely, they do look half decent though for the money, worth a punt.

Material: ABS

 

Led light: Blue for running, Yellow for turning signal

 

Color: Black

 

Placement on vehicle: left, right, front

 

Black line: positive pole

 

Red line: daytime light

 

Blue line: turn light 

 

I would interpret line as cable :good: 

red cable -  daytime running light, take feed foe this from a switched live, pref lights :good: 

blue cable -  indicator, take feed for this positive feed to indicator  :good: 

Black line as earth ? :good: 

 

just touch the black to negative on your/a battery, and then the blue and red in turn to the live, you will soon see what colour LED lights up

 

don't worry you won't hurt anything

LED's are diodes so if you connect up backwards, they just don't light as no current flows.
